Children learn that we each have a purpose
Dream Big for Kids by Bob Goff and Lindsey Goff Viducich is a BIG nicely illustrated children's book at 32 pages and about 10 inches squared. Dream Big for Kids is aimed at children ages four to eight. I would lean on giving it to children more in the six to eight year old age range but it all depends on the child. Dream Big for Kids encourages kids to use their imaginations and dream during the day--not just at night. What could they do when they grow up? What do they like to do? What do the kids hope for themselves and the world that they live in? This book is a Christian-based book so there is talk about God in this book and how we are all created by Him to be uniquely gifted to do things in the world. I like that this book encourages dreaming and hoping for good things. I like that the book is inclusive in both illustrations and its wordings so all children can learn these things. Dream Big for Kids would make a nice gift for someone too. I received a copy of this book from Tommy Nelson. All opinions within this review are my own.

We all are unique and have a purpose to share
“These people were once kids just like you, and they followed their big dreams. Because they did, they changed the world.” This is a fabulous, colorful, encouraging story for kids about how important their big dreams and talents are to make the world a better place. My 4 year old loved that the book asked her questions about her dreams and it gave us a chance to talk about what she might do one day to change the world. A central theme is we are uniquely created by God on purpose and for a purpose, and your dreams “might be the very things God wants to use to make the world a better place!” This book is definitely a religious picture book and repeatedly reminds young readers that God has a plan for their life, which I was encouraged by as I want that for my kids. The references to various historical figures and what they accomplished makes for excellent further reading and learning about other topics as my kids grow older. I’d recommend this book for children ages 4-7 as a read aloud and 8-10 for independent reading and deeper discussion. I received a complimentary copy from the publisher and not required to write a positive review.

Absolutely beautiful illustrations and message
I loved the message conveyed at the end - that the world needs the big dreams of children. I was reminded of the philanthropic work I did as a child. I think that a lot of kids can make the world a better place, because they are willing to take risks that older people aren't. I received a review copy from the publisher and have left my opinion.

Inspiring!
Dream Big for Kids is a children’s book written by Bob Goff and Lindsey Goff Viducich. This book is all about big dreams. It inspires kids to have big dreams, and it gives examples of dreams to get kids’ imaginations going. My Thoughts: This is an absolutely wonderful book. It is extremely encouraging, and does a great job of inspiring kids to start reaching for their dreams right now. The illustrations are so beautiful as well. There is an entire story being told in these pictures, and after I read the story, I went back and looked through all of the pictures again. Then, I sat down and read this book to my eight-year old son. He also really enjoyed it. This book would be perfect to have at home, or give as a gift. I hope they decide to make it into a board book, because I think it could be great for little kids as well, and the pictures are already well-suited for that too. It’s a really great book, and I enjoyed it! I would like to thank Thomas Nelson: CHILDREN’S for providing me with a free digital copy of this book in exchange for my review. Thank you!
