Bruce Lee: The Little Dragon

Hello. My name is Bruce Lee. When I was a little boy, I had so much energy. I loved to dance and move all around. I was born on November 27th, 1940. I grew up in a place called Hong Kong. It was lots of fun. I was even an actor in movies when I was a child. I also became a dancing champion because I loved to move to the music.

When I got bigger, I learned a special kind of moving called kung fu. It was like a very powerful dance. It helped me feel strong and focused. I moved back to America, and I wanted to share my special moves with everyone. So, I opened schools to teach others. I even made my own way of moving called Jeet Kune Do. It meant being like water and moving in your own best way.

I wanted to share my energy with the whole world, so I starred in big movies. People could see my powerful moves on the screen. I lived to be 32 years old. Today, people still watch my movies. They learn from my ideas about being strong in your body and kind in your heart. It is wonderful to know my story still helps people feel brave.
