Too Young to What?

Danté has big dreams. He knows what he has to do to make his dreams come true, but people keep telling him that he needs to wait until he is older. Join Danté as he learns about 10 trailblazing children who have done and are still doing extraordinary things despite their age. Should Danté follow his dreams? What about you?Too Young to What? is the fourth book of the "Inspired to be..." Series. This creative non-fiction story is meant to inspire children to pursue their dreams, regardless of their age. Children are often told that they are too young to do certain things; however, when it comes to doing something productive that is not harmful to the child, age should not be a limitation. There are many examples of children who defied what was expected of them at their age. I hope these examples inspire the children who read this book and show them that they too, are not too young to follow their dreams and accomplish great things.This book is inspired by Machel Montano, and more specifically, the message in his debut album, "Too Young to Soca." Machel is the King of Soca, a genre of music originating from his [and my] home island, Trinidad. He is one of the genre's most popular artists. Machel's music career began at age seven. Three years later, he released his album, "Too Young to Soca" and it became an instant hit. Despite being told he was too young to be a soca artist, he still pursued it and has reached great heights in his career.
