Picture Gandhi (English)
Who was this man who so mesmerised the world, born a century and a half ago but whose words and wisdom are still so current, so compelling? Films, plays, books, media images and news stories bring him regularly into our homes. His birthday, 2 October, is the International Day for Non-violence. But how do we relate this familiar yet distant icon to a child of today?

Picture Gandhi attempts to shake off the aura and reach the person beneath. It is a story told simply, honestly and affectionately – much like the man himself. Old black-and-white photographs are used playfully to give immediacy and to bring Mahatma Gandhi closer to young readers. Along with little thought bubbles that float through the pages, they give us an intimate glimpse of a man of our times, a man for all times.
Available in Adi, Apatani, Miju Mishimi, Nocte, Nyishi (Arunachal), Bodo (Assam). For more details, please contact us.
