This book gives a short overview over the life of Mohanda Gandhi in a very suitable way for young children (I would say ages 4 to 8). Each page contains wonderful illustrations and a very short and simple text narrating the most important steps on Gandhis way. Even for me this was informative. I never knew that Gandhi went from his studies in Britain first to South Africa. I always thought he was 'active' only in India.

Naturally this book can give only a very abridged version of Gandhis biography, but at least the young reader has heard about this person already and hopefully he/she will learn more about him later at school.

My only critique is regarding the price. My limit for a book of this size would be a tenner.
