review:
'Mahatma Gandhi (Little People, Big Dreams)' by Ma Isabel Vegara with illustrations by Albert Arrayas is a picture book in a series about famous people.

Mahatma, born Mahandas, was a little boy with a big heart. His mother taught him to be honest. When he was older, he went to school in London. He took his law degree to South Africa to work as a lawyer, but found prejudice there. His first protest was there in the middle of the street. It became the first peaceful resistance movement. From there he went back to India and more peaceful, gentle protest.

This is such a beautifully told story. I love the sweet drawings of a gentle child who became a world leader. The book includes a timeline. I have appreciated almost every book in this series I've read.

I received a review copy of this ebook from Quarto Publishing Group - Frances Lincoln Childrens, and NetGalley in exchange for an honest review. Thank you for allowing me to review this ebook.
