This autobiographical story is about learning patience, nonviolent practice, and adjusting to a new environment. It is told from the point-of-view of Gandhi’s 12-year- old grandson. Author’s Note. This book is about Gandhi's grandson, Arun, struggling with expectations as a young boy. He saw how great his grandfather was and felt insecure about who he was, that he wasn't measuring up to the Gandhi name. His grandfather teaches him a lesson about anger and how you should put that energy into something else instead of lashing out. This would be a good book for an English clas because it teaches a good lesson with it. This could make a good bibliotherapy book for children dealing with anger and other difficult feelings, children who have family members they feel they need to live up to, have challenges with sharing, It’s a fine story about the power of stories. For me the autobiographical story proper was too slight for older kids and adults and maybe too mature for the youngest kids, though I do think all ages can enjoy it. The illustrations were really interesting and I enjoyed their details but aesthetically not my favorite art. I did like them though and thought the pictures fit the story well. My favorite page in the book was the last page that contained a “Note from the Authors” and touched on their stories. It’s for older (school aged) kids and adults. An extra half star for it. Very touching and meaningful and important. I’m glad that I read this book. I have always had some interest in Gandhi but didn’t know or remember much about his family life. 3-1/2 stars sin reseñas | añadir una reseña
