I love the Little People, Big Dreams series! The text is written at a great level for my students to engage them without being too much for them to comprehend, and I just adore the illustrations in the books! The L.M. Montgomery book was just wonderful. I really appreciate that the series includes lesser-known people who still deserve their time in the spotlight. My biography lovers will really enjoy seeing this in the library! Thank you, NetGalley, for the ARC!

I love this book. Everything about it is wonderful It has good illustrations and a fantastic story. If you are a fan of L.M. Montgomery's work and Anne of Green Gables you will enjoy this book. It is nice for younger readers, but any fan of the author or her wonderful Anne character will enjoy this story. I recommend it. This is a wonderful book and another great book provided in this series about great people in history.

I so wish these books had been around when I was younger. This was so fun and interesting to read and the art style will keep younger readers infatuated.

(General series review) These are fabulous stories about great women and men in history (for the most part). The illustrations are so amazing, both for kids and adults. There is a brief history on the person that explains how this person contributed to history and matters. Being a huge fan of Lucy Maud Montgomery, this is one book I will definitely be buying in physical form.

What a delightful book about L.M. Montgomery. It is a quick and charming read. The illustrations are engaging. Any young reader will love this book!

Another in this fantastic series teaching both kids and adults alike about the many amazing women out there, and that you should always be willing to chase your dreams. This one did have special meaning for me, being a big fan of L. M. Montgomery. Whilst there were parts of her life glossed over (for the young audience), it’s great to see a new generation being taught about such a wonderful author.

Part of an already lovely series of Little People Big Dreams, this entry about L. M. Montgomery is excellent. Maud’s story is told in a way accessible for young children, highlighting some of her similarities with her eventual star character of Anne of Green Gables. The accompanying art brings the story to life.
I will be recommending this to my library's children's materials selector.

Little People, Big Dreams is such a lovely series and this latest edition, L.M. Montgomery, does not disappoint. Though I’ve not read any of her work (gasp!), I used to watch the original tv series starring Megan Follows (who will always, always be Anne to me!), so Anne of Green Gables is near and dear to my heart.

Aside from highlighting the life and accomplishments of an esteemed female author, I love this book because it might inspire some more children to read her stories. In fact, I’m now inspired not only to go back and re-watch the original tv series, but to finally read the series. But I digress…

As an adult and avid reader, I’m always excited to learn more about the lives of authors. Once again, I learned a great deal about L.M. Montgomery while reading this book. However, what is particularly pertinent for children is her persistence and positive attitude. Despite a less than stellar childhood, she found a way to make herself happy and tenaciously pursued her dreams. That’s an example we can all learn from.

A beautiful edition to the Little People, Big Dreams series. It's lovely to read about L.M. Montgomery's life and inspirations for writing, especially if you loved Anne of Green Gables as a kid!

Thank you Netgalley & Frances Lincoln Children's Books for a advanced copy of this book.

This book is a part of a series being done about successful women in history. As a Canadian I'm very excited to see Lucy Maud Montgomery included. The author of Anne of Green Gables is a huge part of Canadian history (especially in getting Prince Edward Island (PEI) on the map). Additionally Montgomery wrote at a time about friendship in a way that had never really been seen.
In fact today I think many writers could benefit from a re-read of Montgomery's many works in Anne's universe to be reminded of how to write a story that doesn't focus entirely on a love story.
This cute little book is perfect for those who love Anne of Green Gables or as an introduction to Montgomery and her wonderful series. Afterall most of Anne's stories are those of Montgomery herself (as you will learn in this book).

Please note: I received an eARC of this book from the publisher via NetGalley. This is an honest and unbiased review.

This series never disappoints and the life of L.M. Montgomery was no exception. Giving children real life heroes to learn about and be inspired by is a perfect way to have quality non-fiction in your classroom or home. The engaging and fun illustrations make the book way to read. The simple text makes the book accessible for very young readers. The combination of the two makes for a perfect read. The joy the book about Montgomery brought was that it showed that being a writer is a real job.

This is another brilliant addition to this series – even as an adult I look out for the next book in the series being released. I love the images in this series and this is a delightful introduction to Lucy Montgomery.

They are excellent introductions to some of the well-known, and less well-known, characters that have had a great impact in our lives through a variety of subjects such as literature, women’s rights and science.

5 stars from me for this one – a delightful read and one I will be highly recommending!!

The perfect introduction to the beloved author of Anne of Green Gables! This series is one of the best out there. I love how it highlights influential women.

The life story of Lucy Maud Montgomery will teach kids about the power of creativity, the love of reading and writing stories. Moreover, just like her famous book character, Anne of Green Gables, and Maud's determination to never give up on chasing one's dream is a great example to all readers, especially to young ones. This is another amazing installment to the Little People, Big Dreams series and I highly recommend this to parents and teachers, as this kind of book is an outstanding teaching material that is a must in every school and public libraries.

Another brilliantly simple introduction to a famous woman who made her mark on history. Aside from knowing of Anne of Green Gables I knew very little of the author. This colourful Andy brief account of her life told me much of what I needed to know, including where the idea for The character of Anne came from.

Like other books in the series, Lucy Maude Montgomery first gives a story-style biography of the important points in the author’s life and is followed by a Slightly padded out ‘adult’ biography with photographs of the author. There were then some ideas of what to read, and even visit next to find out more.

This series is brilliant and I’ll be recommending the specific books to an child who expresses an interest in subjects associated with the figures depicted in the books.

This "Little People, Big Dreams" series is absolutely gorgeous and a great way to teach and inspire the little kids. The illustrations speak on their own that there isn't much need for work. An absolute delight to read and great book for the little ones.

Some of these illustration were really fun!

Mª Isabel Sánchez Vegara’s Little People, Big Dreams series are a collection of picture books for children that aim towards inspiring the younger generations by profiling prominent historical figures. Previous installments have featured; Coco Chanel, Frida Kahlo and Agatha Christie.

The latest release shines the spotlight on beloved Canadian author Lucy Maud Montgomery and her how she persevered to become a writer. Illustrated by Anuska Allepu, this book inspires children to follow their dreams.

I am so glad this book series exists. The illustrations are gorgeous and they are such an easy and fun way to get very young children interested in history early on while inspiring them with stories of little people who have changed the world in their own ways.

Great picture book for children with simple words for them to understand. I love this series and will be checkin other books.
