Seeing beauty where others may not, such a great thing. Great story about pursuing one's dreams. Illustrations were wonderful as well.

I'm always excited when I see a Little People, Big Dreams book in the NetGalley catalogue. I knew absolutely nothing about Leonard Cohen going into this and this book provided a great overview of both his musical career as well as his personal life. As always with this series, I love that the book teaches valuable life lessons alongside telling the person's story. In the case of this book, the main message was the power of hope and the importance of seeing beauty in everyday things. I thought the illustrations complemented the story really well.

Overall I love this series and this book makes a great addition to it!

The Little People, Big Dreams series is so wonderful. As a mom, I think I read them more for me, than my boys.
They always have a great message of following your dreams, mixed in with important character qualities for children to aspire to. But for the adults- I always learn new things about real people that I follow or know about. It always reminds me that a person's story is important- it's not always about where you end up- but the journey to get there.
Loved learning about Leonard Cohen- who I knew very little about.

I loved the story! The illustrations are absolutely beautiful. I think this is a story my kids would really enjoy listening to and getting to look at all the pictures.
