This book was so great! It tells the backstory of Patrick Mahomes and how he became a household name as a football player. As an educator in Kansas City, books such as these are super popular in classroom libraries around the post-season when students are extra excited about the hometown team. The illustrations fit the story well. I would love to get a copy of this for my classroom when it is published.

Thank you, NetGalley and the publisher, for the digital ARC in exchange for an unbiased, honest review of the book.

I love the Little People, Big Dreams Series for children. The information is accessible and engaging for a younger audience and the illustrations are interesting and vibrant. This book provides a surface level look at the accomplishments of Patrick Mahomes and how he worked toward attaining his childhood dreams. I would recommend this book for any young football fan.

This felt like a full circle book, particularly the final page “…and that is how…” felt like he was telling his own story to his son. A lovely, inspirational story which should motivate children to stick with their passion.

This is such a This is the first book I’ve read from the “Little People Dream Big” series, and it was perfect! It’s such a fun, yet informative book that would please any age.

Love the little people big dreams series. This book explores the life of NFL quarterback Patrick Mahomes, in a way that is appealing and approachable by kids. It is a great resource for introducing children to famous people they would not otherwise be exposed to. And as always, the art is wonderful.

Another wonderful entry into the Little People, Big Dreams series. This is is about Patrick Mahomes, who is a hometown local for me. I always knew he was a local football star who made it big in the NFL, but I didn't know much about his background.

This follows Mahomes's life growing up in Texas, playing sports, and becoming the star he is today, including his foundation 15 and the Mahomies Foundation. The illustrations are really colorful and engaging.

This is a perfect book for anyone who loves the Chiefs, football, or learning about sports stars.

Thank you Quarto Publishing Group – Frances Lincoln Children's Books and Frances Lincoln Children's Books for the eGalley.

This one seemed weaker than others in the series, possibly because there was no real hint of any obstacles that Mahomes overcame. Still, he would probably be a good role model for many young boys.

I love the Little People Big Dreams series, but I feel like this book fell a bit flat. It was almost as if they didn't have enough information to pull from, so it was very to the point with no expansion of his other childhood activities or things he has completed since becoming famous. A good read still for anyone wanting to learn about Patrick Mahomes with no previous knowledge.

This was a cute little book. I had no idea his dad was a baseball player and that he dropped out of college, so I learned a lot. Cool book for a football playing fan of his!

Informative writing about Patrick Mahomes life and what led to his success as an NFL quarterback. Kids who are fans could learn a lot and see that sometimes dreams shift along the way.

I love this series and this was no different! Really enjoyed learning more about Patrick Mahomes and think this is a perfect book for a little sports fan! Great examples of different things he did and tried out, and lovely art style!

Another great little people, big dreams book. The only thing I knew about Patrick Mahomes before reading this book was that he played for the Kansas City Chiefs and played with Taylor Swift's boyfriend. My son enjoyed reading this one with me.

Thank you so much to NetGalley, Quarto Publishing and the author for providing me with an advanced reader copy fo review purposes!

I have a little nephew, so naturally, I'm on a quest to find interesting books to gift him. I've been looking at the Little people, Big dreams series for a while now, so I'm happy I got the opportunity to review a few of them.
This a short biography of Patrick Mahomes, quarterback for the Kansas City Chiefs and NFL golden boy. It covers all the bases of his journey, and it offers interesting facts.
If you have a kid in your family that enjoys football, or is a sports enthusiast, this would make a great gift. Little people, big dreams never disappoints!

Thank you NetGalley and the publisher for an advance copy of this book in exchange for my honest opinion.

I love that this series also introduce us to young people that have achieved amazing things and we can still cheer and follow them.

I know little about American Football so it was great to discover Patrick Mahomes. He is doing such an amazing job!

Thank you for the opportunity!

I love the Little People, Big Dreams series and I thought this book made the perfect addition. I hadn't heard of Patrick Mahomes before reading this and I liked that this gave a clear, concise and interesting of his life and career. As always I like that the author chooses to focus on the attributions that make these people successful, in this case his determination and ability to excel in a team. I thought the illustrations were adorable and really complimented the story. Additionally I like that there is a biography, photo gallery and book recommendations in the back for older readers.

Overall I love this series and this book was no exception!

A quick look at the life of Patrick Mahomes and how he became the best QB in the NFL. It has information that I didn't know about despite being short so I enjoyed that.

My Rating: ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

My Overall Thoughts/Impressions: I love this series by Maria Isabel Sanchez Vegara. She does a great job distilling people's lives into messages easily digestible by young readers while making them interesting for older readers, too. I also love the breadth of who she covers in her series.

This one on Patrick Mahomes does a great job of outlining how he became such a great, well-known quarterback. It is pretty surface-level for those who really love sports. It doesn't dive too deeply into his stats or specific accomplishments, but it is a great primer for those who may not know about him or know much about him. It mostly focuses on his athletic accomplishments. For fans of the series, they will enjoy this one. For people less familiar, the books do a great job informing readers about a variety of people.

Pages: 32

Reading age: 4-7 years of age.

An adorable and informative biography for young readers. It is a great telling of Mahomes’ story and a reminder that it is important to work hard and be a respectful person in order to achieve your dreams.

My five year old son LOVED this book!!! We have read it many many nights before bed and he just loves it. It was wonderfully done and so intriguing for kids to learn. Highly recommend for boys who love football!
