Part of the highly recognizable Little People, BIG DREAMS series, the book about Zaha Hadid tells the inspiring true story of the visionary Iraqi-British architect. Zaha Hadid grew up in Baghdad, Iraq, surrounded by music. She was a curious and confident child who designed her own modernist bedroom at the age of nine. As a young woman studying at the University of Beirut, she was described as the most outstanding student her professor had ever met. With her striking vision and belief in the power of architecture, she founded her own company and designed some of the world's most stunning buildings, including the London Olympic Aquatics Centre in 2012.
This inspiring book includes stylish and quirky illustrations and extra information at the back, including a biographical timeline with historical photos and a detailed profile of the architect's life. The Little People, BIG DREAMS series is a best-selling biographical series for children that explores the lives of extraordinary people, from designers and artists to scientists and activists. All of them achieved incredible things, but they all started as children with dreams.
