Lewis Hamilton to read ‘Small’s Big Dream’ for Cbeebies Bedtime Stories

Lewis Hamilton will read 'Small’s Big Dream' by Manjeet Mann, illustrated by Amanda Quartey for Cbeebies Bedtime Stories on Wednesday 3 July at 6.50pm.

The seven-time Formula 1 World Champion narrates the tale of Small, a girl who feels her dreams are too grand for someone like her. Despite trying to suppress them, her dreams overflow and lift her higher.

Lewis Hamilton shares his thoughts on the book: “It’s incredibly inspiring, reminding me of my own childhood and the big dreams I had. I know many kids have big dreams, and some might be told their dreams are too big. But this story really shows that no dream is too big or small. As long as you believe in yourself, work hard, stay focused, and give it your all, anything is possible.”
