![]() ![]() I liked the way Mr Kalam has talked about his own shortcomings at all important junctures of his life.ĭespite all his achievements, he has nowhere boasted of his greatness or his success. ![]() The writing style focuses on inspiring the young minds to seek more knowledge and take charge of their own lives no matter what their beginnings or background are and through the cleverly planned text, that purpose has definitely been achieved. Keeping in mind that the target audience is children, the language too is kept simple. The illustrations are pretty basic but they do a good job of supplementing the text. The story covers his childhood, college life, professional life and ultimately his life as the President of India. The story of his life is meant to inspire children and to impress upon teachers the need to ignite in their pupils, the fire of curiosity and the lust for knowledge. “My Life: An Illustrated Autobiography”, one amongst the many biographies of his is mainly written for children. The man is an epitome of simplicity and “living it real”. He is known by one and all and yet he opens this biography with such a humble introduction and such humble beginnings. ![]()
