Growing Up With Lee Kuan Yew

Singapore's founding father: comic-styled historical insight.

If you've been curious about the man behind Singapore's transformation, "Growing Up with Lee Kuan Yew" could be a refreshing take that combines history with personal anecdotes. It's not just another heavy political biography; the comic-book approach makes it accessible, especially if you appreciate learning through visuals. It's like stepping into the shoes of a young Lee, understanding the pivotal moments and motivations that shaped a nation's destiny.

Description

Growing Up With Lee Kuan Yew aims to emphasise the contributions of Lee Kuan Yew to a younger generation of readers. Presented in a light-hearted comic-book style, this book features Lee’s political career and milestone events in Singapore, and also gives young readers a glimpse into Lee’s private life – his family, childhood, his school years, his courtship years, as well as his experience during the Japanese Occupation of Singapore. Growing Up With Lee Kuan Yew offers a good look at Singapore’s founding father as a boy, a student and a young man who was to become the leader responsible for steering Singapore towards nationhood and to its place of recognition in the world.
