Tibet, My Story by Jetsun Pema
Jetsun Pema is the sister of the present Dalai Lama. This is her autobiography. It is a fascinating tale of her life in Tibet from the time her brother was acknowledged as the fourteenth Dalai Lama and the whole family moved from their small village to Lhasa. Several years later they were forced to flee to India to escape the Chinese invasion. Here she plays a major part in the education of the refugee Tibetan children.
