MY HERO recommends this book to children readers.

From the Publisher
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.

i wonder if gandhi ever wrote about us girls, that why can't we get an education. i think that gandhi is a great hero.

The following article explains Gandhi's views on women:
