Though many biographies of Vivekananda have been published, this one focuses mainly on his childhood, with glimpses of his growth into a youngster. Swami Vivekananda's personality — with his courage, selflessness, love for his fellow beings, thirst for knowledge, and other noble qualities—cannot but be a wonderful role model for children even long after they have grown up.
I am the thread that runs through all these pearls, and each pearl is a religion or even a sect thereof. Such are the different pearls, and God is the thread that runs through all of them; most people, however, are entirely unconscious of it.
-Swami Vivekananda
