Be the Change: A Grandfather Gandhi Story | Arun Gandhi, Bethany Hegedus
4 posts | 3 read
In this breathtaking companion to the award-winning Grandfather Gandhi, Arun Gandhi, with Bethany Hegedus, tells a poignant, personal story of the damage of wastefulness, gorgeuously illustrated by Evan Turk. At Grandfather Gandhis service village, each day is filled, from sunrise to sunset, with work that is done for the good of all. The villagers vow to live simply and non-violently. Arun Gandhi tries very hard to follow these vows, but he struggles with one of the most important rules: not to waste. How can throwing away a worn-down pencil hurt anyone? How can wastefulness lead to violence? With the help of his grandfather, Arun learns how every wasteful act, no matter how small, affects others. And in time he comes to understand the truth of his grandfathers words: Be the change you wish to see in the world.

Reading is RESISTANCE. Books are powerful weapons. Book ownership is a necessity. Always give back where you live. ✌🏻

Book lovers together can do amazing things- never doubt your abilities.

Haven't posted in a few days (all ill again! Taking it in my stride...)
Just wanted to send love to all the US Littens who voted and are watching the results. If it doesn't quite go the way you had hoped, rebel in the little things. Stay positive. The next generation is coming of age and I have so much faith in them.

Naj Hope you feel better soon 🤗🤗 5y

Pickpick

I went through this book first and just looked at the illustrations. Then I went back and read the story several times. Different ages of children will be able to understand exactly what they need from this story. And it is definitely one to reread throughout the school years.
