About these stories
The same childhoods as When They Were Young, and a few more besides: Dolly Parton making up a song about her corncob doll in a one-room cabin, and a girl meeting Taylor Swift backstage and learning that kindness outlasts fame. Around them the historians and scientists — Marie Curie, Einstein, Tesla, Stephen Hawking, Jane Goodall, Leonardo, Frida Kahlo, Mozart, Rosa Parks, Harriet Tubman, Sacagawea, Jackie Robinson and George Washington Carver — each caught at the moment their story began.
Twenty true stories, told from a child's height, for two- to seven-year-olds. This is the wider shelf; When They Were Young is the same idea as a series you can play straight through, and as a podcast.
