Write Your Own History(TM) Mahatma Gandhi
An Interactive Adventure for Young Readers (Ages 7-15)
You are Mohandas Gandhi, a young boy growing up in India, still years away from becoming the leader the world will remember.
For now, your world is smaller. Your family. Your promises. Your fears. And the difficult choices that begin shaping who you will become.
Will you tell the truth when lying would be easier? Will you stand firm when others pressure you? And what happens when the stories and legends around you begin to feel frighteningly real?
Follow strange root fibers beneath an ancient banyan tree. Encounter a mysterious old woman. Venture into a burial ground where something may be watching from above. Face spirits drawn from Indian folklore, uncover strange objects, and decide whether some mysteries are better left undisturbed.
Or follow history as childhood lessons in honesty, duty, family, and self-discipline begin shaping the principles that will guide Gandhi for the rest of his life.
Rewrite history as you make decisions for
Mahatma Gandhi
In Write Your Own History(TM), you make the decisions.
Some paths follow Gandhi's true journey through his formative years, family responsibilities, marriage to Kasturba, the loss of his father, and the decisions that eventually lead him toward England and a much larger world.
Others imagine what might have been, where ancient trees hide impossible secrets, legends step out of the darkness, and curiosity can lead you somewhere you never expected.
Each choice reveals a different side of Gandhi and asks what happens when courage is measured not by how hard you fight, but by the choices you make when no one else can make them for you.
