Gandhi - Maura D. Shaw
Who Was Mahatma Gandhi?
Mahatma Gandhi was strong, even though his body was thin and small. He was the leader of one of the largest countries in the world, but he never wore fancy clothes or lived in a presidential palace. Gandhi taught the people of India–and the people of the world–how to resist violence without being violent. He often was put in jail because his peaceful power threatened the government that ruled his country unfairly.
When you learn about Mahatma Gandhi’s life, you will see what makes him amazing. He showed people how to bring about change through peaceful ways. The children of India called him Bapuji,
which means father.
He is known as the father of modern India.
