Publication Noida, Harper Collins Children's Books, 2019.
Description 122pOrange and brown spine
Summary/Abstract How many times are kids supposed to study Gandhi? Come September and out comes the bald head wig, round glasses, white dhoti, tall stick ... that's about the extent of how today's kids engage with the Mahatma. Chandrashekhar is one such teen. Bored by the annual Gandhi projects, he wonders if his teacher is being too unreasonable in asking them to "BE" Gandhi. And then, his world is shaken by events that rock him to the core, forcing him to dig deep and not just find his 'inner Gandhi', but become Gandhi. Not for a day or two. But, maybe even, for life. This is a novel that explores, not Gandhi the man or his life as a leader, but really the Gandhian way that must remain relevant to us. Especially today when the world is becoming increasingly steeped in violence and hate.

Gandhi experiment: teaching our teenagers how to become global citizens / Hepworth, Margaret 2017  Book
Hepworth, Margaret Book

Publication New Delhi, Rupa Publications, 2017.
Description xxii, 151pRed spine
Summary/Abstract How do we take gandhi's messages further, as lessons that could bring about change in and around us? Perhaps a healthy dose of non-violent, solution-focused activities stemming from gandhian principles would be a more productive approach both at school and at home, especially for the citizens of tomorrow. How do we teach our youngsters non-violence is a conscious choice; that we need to rise against injustices; that 'hope in action' and 'moving from apathy to action' are of supreme importance; and that 'satyagraha' is the very foundation we stand on? This book literally equips teachers and parents with tools and strategies for peace-building. For teachers, it takes these into the rigorous academic classroom; for parents, it is a guide to how they can build better relationships with their children whilst helping them step forward into a better world. The gandhi experiment teaches teenagers global citizenship, conflict resolution, anger management, forgiveness and how to mould their thoughts for a more positive future.
