'Dream is not something that you see while sleeping. It is something that does not let you sleep.' - Dr. APJ Abdul KalamFrom being a quiet child with extraordinary abilities in Rameshwaram to becoming the eleventh President of the world’s largest democracy, Dr. Kalam has been one of the most iconic figures of contemporary India. Popularly known as the ’Missile Man of India’, Dr. Kalam was a visionary scientist who played a pivotal role in shaping the country’s space exploration programme. Despite all the success and fame that came his way as a celebrated scientist - and later in his political career - he remained committed to his lifelong aspiration of nurturing young minds. A self-professed learner for life, he remained dedicated to the purpose of education in creating an enlightened citizenry. As a testament to Dr. Kalam’s work as an educationist, the United Nations declared October 15 (his birth anniversary) as ’World Student Day’ in 2010. This book is our solemn attempt at condensing the landmark events from Dr. Kalam’s life, including his childhood, early life, career and achievements, and presenting them in an easy-to-read style. This will help readers take away valuable lessons from his inspiring life story, in having the courage to dream and the iron will to make that dream a reality.
