Description

Discover the life story of Dwayne 'The Rock' Johnson, told in an inspiring biography for kids!
Born into a family of wrestlers, little Dwayne travelled around with his parents and watched his family fight in the ring. He was a natural athlete and won a scholarship to play American fooball at university, and even made it to the Canadian professional league, but after just two months he was cut from the team.
During this difficult time, Dwayne learned that real strength came from opening up to others. With some help, he got back on the right path and took on the persona of 'The Rock'. As well as a successful wrestling career, he tried his hand at acting. . . and today is one of the biggest film stars that Hollywood has ever seen!

Little People, Big Dreams does it again! Maria Isabel Sanchez Vegara creates this fun-loving story based on the life of Dwayne Johnson. The illustrations are awesome, and the lessons to be learned are endless. We see Dwayne Johnson face fears of failure and doubt. The strength in overcoming and perseverance that it took for Dwayne Johnson to become the talented actor we know today, is inspiring to kids of all ages. With small facts, I even learned from reading the Dwayne Johnson book from the always inspiring and encouraging collection of Little People, Big Dreams.
