Discover the life of David Attenborough, the inspiring broadcaster and conservationist, at a landmark moment as the world celebrates his 100th birthday, in this book from the critically acclaimed, multimillion‑copy bestselling Little People, BIG DREAMS series.

Little David grew up in Leicester on the campus of a university, where his father was a professor. As a child, he spent hours in the science library, collating his own specimens and creating a mini animal museum. When he was old enough to go to university, he studied science and zoology – but what he wanted most of all was to be close to the animals he was studying.

So, he started working in television, visiting animals in their natural habitats and telling the world the untold stories of these animals. Little David went on to become one of the most celebrated environmentalists on the planet, teaching generation after generation about the importance of the natural world.
