Spiritual Biographies for Young People
This engaging introduction to Gandhi will
show you how
one person can accomplish big things.
This colorful book offers you a window
into the world of Mahatma Gandhi, one of the most amazing
people of the twentieth century. You will learn about
Gandhi’s life—from his time as a student in London
to his work for equality in South Africa and India—and
his methods of peaceful, but not passive, resistance to
injustice.
Through engaging biography, activities
inspired by Gandhi’s values and beliefs, and the words of
Gandhi himself, Gandhi:
India’s Great Soul will
show you how to achieve your goals through persistence and
persuasion rather than through violence and fighting.
