"Little Lenny Henry loved making his friends and family laugh. Yet he dreamt of entertaining big audiences with his jokes and impressions. Aged 16, he won a talent contest and went on to star in many hit shows. In 1985, Lenny and his friends started the charity Comic Relief, which uses laughter to help those in need. This inspiring story of the performer and activist features a fact and photo session at the back."-- Provided by publisher.
