Book Synopsis
This companion book from the creators of You, Me, We: A Celebration of Peace and Community explores another subject near and dear to Mahatma Gandhi's heart: service. What does it mean to be of service? What do we have to give? Can receiving be an act of service? Being a neighbor? A family or community member? A global citizen? Service takes many forms, some as simple as holding a door open, sharing a sandwich, or gathering with friends to beautify a public park. Coauthored by Mahatma Gandhi's late grandson and drawing on both his grandfather's work and the philosophies of educator Maria Montessori, this timely story asks gently guiding questions to encourage even the youngest citizens to be mindful of what they have--and all they have to give. Rich in emotional wisdom, filled with ideas and prompts, and featuring vibrant and richly inclusive illustrations by Colombian artist Andrés Landazábal, this dynamic portrait of children sharing their time, energy, and talents will inspire readers to explore how much it means--and how it feels--to serve the greater good.Review Quotes
A strong starting place for youngsters eager to make a difference.
