Description: Kailash Satyarthi devoted his life to rescuing children from exploitation and fighting for their right to education and safety. Srividhya Venkat’s picture book introduces young readers to his journey: fundraising for poor children’s schooling, standing up against caste prejudice as a child, and launching global campaigns for children’s rights. The narrative highlights his creation of rescue networks, his role in the Global March Against Child Labour, and his Nobel Peace Prize win alongside Malala Yousafzai. With powerful, vivid text and illustrations, the book explores the true meaning of activism and compassion, showing children they can make a difference, no matter how small. Satyarthi’s ideal—“my only aim is that every child is free to be a child”—inspires action and hope, making this a crucial introduction to child rights and social justice.
