This is a graphic retelling of Mandela's story which gives children a visual snapshot of his life and long fight for freedom, while educating them on everything from the history of racial segregation to the importance of equality. You may already know that Nelson Mandela ended apartheid in South Africa and became the country's first Black president, but did you know that he used brilliant disguises to avoid being captured by his enemies? Or that he loved boxing? 'Great Lives in Graphics' reimagines the lives of extraordinary people in vivid technicolour, presenting 250+ biographical facts in a new and exciting way. It takes the essential dates and achievements of each person's life, mixes them with lesser-known facts and trivia, and uses infographics to show them in a fresh visual way that is genuinely engaging for children and young adults.
