I'm not really a fan of true stories. Fiction is the section of the library that I'm always poking around in. But THREE CUPS OF TEA, even the Young Reader's Edition, by Greg Mortenson, totally enveloped me in its adventure. Who knew that one mountain climber could experience so much, and help so many people? Well, apparently the Chief of this village knew.
I could not believe how sad this story was, while at the same time enlightening. While children all over the U.S. sit in classrooms with desks...more

Greg Mortenson wrote the amazing non-fiction book on his life-changing journey to Pakistan. Greg is this average man who just happened to be hiking in Pakistan on a very confusing and large trail to climb the mountain K2. While he was trying to do that he did something he did not expect or thought would happen which made him a very well known hero to this day because of what he did.
Three Cups of Tea is about Greg actually getting lost on his way up to the top of K2 with a group of friends. He became lost while hiking down the Baltoro Glacier. This expedition he was apart of was supposed to take place over three months. After understanding he was lost he headed in another direction until he found himself in some small town that was this extremely poor village. The people of the village treated him kindly while he stayed there. While he was there he noticed what poor condition many of their things were in. Their kindness really touched his heart and he felt so badly because of their conditions that he promised to build a school. This started history, the town was filled with happiness and Greg became a hero. After building one school he could not stop he felt he had the need to build more and help other towns to educate the young kids. Over the decade he had built over sixty different schools which helps to show what a dedicated hero Greg truly is.
This book made me happy because, of knowing how generous some people are and how anyone can be a hero. I read this pretty quickly because I couldn’t put it down since it was so good! Non-fiction books always keep me reading more because it is usually fascinating. I could only imagine how good Greg feels about what he has done and realized what an accomplishment it truly is to build sixty schools in a short period of only ten years.
Three Cups of Tea is just one of those books that really help to put you in a good mood and makes you want to read more. I have definitely gotten attached to it because I love to read these random acts of kindness because if Greg had not gotten lost on his trail he most likely would have never built those schools. This is a great story to be able to tell your family, it is almost as if it is fate that he ended up in that town.

This book was about Greg Mortenson who was a mountain climber. He was climbing K2 when they couldn't make it to the summit because they had to bring a sick friend down. Climbing back up was exhausting because the air was thinner the higher they went. Greg found himself coming down the side of the mountain and ended up getting lost. He did this twice and ended up in the wrong village on the bottom of the mountain. The village took him in and helped him get his strength back and after he was ready...more

After his sister died from a massive seizure, Greg decided to climb K2 in order to take his sister's amber necklace to put on the top of the mount.

What I mean by that is there are people that are willing to not just sit around and watch people try to help, but gets in there and does something.

This heart throbbing story that pulls at your heart strings was amazing. I do have to say though, this book was very well written, but seemed almost too well written. It had so many details that I wouldn't even be able to remember. It seemed like this book was looked over carefully and was written very...neatly. And with all the controversy of what is true and what is not, Greg is a liar, he did this and didnt do that, the whole nine yards, made it hard to concentrate on the real meaning of this book. That many kids all over Asia don't have the opportunity for education, and with the CAI, you can make that happen. That one school built is a big part of a problem solved. This book also talked about how children were passionate about school and some tried to start classes outside. It told of what Greg went through to build his schools, about the creation of an organization called the CAI (Central Asian Institute), and how Greg spread the word of this continuing problem to raise money for the schools. To me, what Greg did was more than anyone could have dreamed to do. Even if he did miss important things in making the project of education come together, at least he tried. He had a vision that was strong enough to carry out, and this book says how he did it and what his vision was. In the end, i learned that even though biulding schools doesn't solve the whole problem, its a step in the right direction.
I loved this book not only because in it, schools were built for kids so they can get an education, but also because it told the story of what greg went through and the struggles to make this happen, and because it showed the customs of the different villages and the countrys themselves. For example, the custom that I liked most was the serving of tea and how a person who has tea once, is a stranger, the second time, is a friend, and the third time, family. What I did not like about the book is that he didnt describe anything about getting teachers and how it ended. I felt that it needed to continue.
I would definitely recommend this book to people who want to learn more about the importance of school and life in South Asia. I would do so because the book shows the eagerness of children wanting to learn and how many adults begged Greg to build schools in there villages. This book talks of the way of life in South Asia because it says how there is no education for kids and how they try to teach themsleves. It also shows the cultures to the different villages like how the yak is a prized possesion in Korphe, and how in one village, sugar was scarce and used in only special accasions. And that each village has a chief who they look up to and the different languages people speak in. (less)

The introduction (the story is not written by Greg Mortenson) alone brought tears to my eyes, not because it was sad, but because it made me grateful that people like "Dr. Greg" exist in this world. Three Cups of Tea, focuses on the work of a simple man, named Greg Mortenson, and the people who believed in him and his belief in the of education of children in the poverty stricken areas of Pakistan, and later, Afghanistan. Greg Mortenson started off as a nurse and mountain climber who never reached his goal of summiting at the top of K2, and ended up as a humanitarian who started his journey by stumbling on a small town where he realized his new calling, building schools. In a land where girls had a very slim chance of getting an education, Greg was able to surpass the government and build his own schools though an organization called the Central Asia Institute. Through many donations, hours, and assistance, Greg was able to get this foundation off the ground and walking (not running, because that took a very long time) with his hard work ethic and network that supported his cause.

Greg's passion was the key to achieve his goal of building his first school and that same passion was maintained about every school he built. He haggled with many locals, was deceived, was delayed, but still, he never lost sight of his goal to build a school in a town that he promised to bring education to. The dedication of his wife, who hardly saw her husband since he was out of the country for months at a time throughout of the year, was a story of true love. Even though it is a small part of the story, her support was vital and she was a true partner, believing in what Greg was doing as much as he did. The patience of the village leader when the first school was being built in Korphe was also another vital factor in Greg's success. When Greg arrives with the supplies, Haji Ali, the leader and later mentor to Greg, decides that before they build the school, they must first build a bridge so the supplies can be carried over. When Greg seems frustrated that the school will not be built before his deadline, Haji Ali asks, what what is another year, when they have been waiting centuries for a school to come to their people? I think this mentality really prepared Greg for all his future builds and made him understand the people he was serving in a different manner. Growing up in a generation where immediate gratification is norm, the patience of Haji Ali is remarkable. Other than Haji Ali, it surprises me due to pure ignorance how many people in Pakistan were dedicated to bring education to a land where the government would not provide it for their children, their future. From the drivers, to random people hearing his speak at events, to the members of the Central Asia Institute board, each person was 100% dedicated to building schools for the young and nothing could waver that passion.

Although the end of the this story only touches on this subject, I think it was important for Greg to tell about the post 9/11 effect on his cause. "Ignorance is the enemy," was a chapter that really hit home, and makes you realize that all around the world, the lack of education is what causes problems between people, cities, and nations. After 9/11, Greg was plowed with hate mail from people in his own country for helping Muslims, or in their eyes, terrorists. Greg could have easily given up his mission for the safety of his family and himself, but he didn't. It revved him up to let people know about his work and the people he was helping, not to prove himself, but to help them understand that these people he was helping were also victims, not terrorists. Here America was, claiming to help rebuild a country they riddled with bombs and missiles, but in fact they left them behind to pick up the pieces on their own. How is a country supposed to rebuild itself without the help of their neighbors? More and more, I find America's "every man for themselves" mentality hindering to their growth. The way the Baltis embraced Greg as their own expresses the community feel of un-westernized world, and maybe the way it should be.

One final thought on this book is that really amazes me that there are people like Greg Mortenson out there, making a difference, without wanting the acknowledgement, only the donations to help support the cause. Some people do a lot of talking, but Greg does a lot of doing, and that is what makes him someone who has already left his mark on this world. The world is lucky to have an example like him; he is truly creating a socially responsible business in a world where most people are concerned about money, he is concerned about educating the future. I remember when I went to hear Muhammad Yunus speak, he said that the goal of a socially responsible business is not to make a profit, but to change a life, and that a socially responsible business would be successful because all it requires is compassion, a characteristic in any human being. Honestly, if for every 100 men, there was one Greg Mortensen, the world would be a much better place.(less)

Greg Mortenson quotes Mother Teresa and lives by her devotion to help others, "What we are trying to do may be a drop in the ocean, but the ocean would be less because of the missing drop". Providing an education to kids and more importantly girls, in Afghanistan and Pakistan is Greg's way to enhance peace and provide people with a reason to live over die.

Three Cups of Tea starts out with Greg Mortenson getting lost while climbing the second largest mountain in the world, K2. On his way down, he accidentally stumbles into the village of Korphe, thinking he is at Askole, and is confused when he realizes his mistake. While there, he is offered only the best of what the people have. After seeing that the children learn by scratching in the dirt, he promises a school and goes to America to raise money. He sends hundreds of letters to celebrities, getting little to no money, he eventually finds a man who is willing to sponsor enough money for a school. He later completes his promise but is stranded to find he needs a bridge over a chasm to get the supplies over to Korphe. He builds the bridge and keeps his promise. However, he did not stop there. The same person who got him the original fund for the bridge and school gave him much more to start the Central Asia Intelligence Program, which now builds schools, water wells, and other necessities around central asia. Now Greg has schools over Pakistan and even Afghanistan.

What I really remember from this book is how much Greg was willing to sacrifice to fulfill his promise to the Korphe people. He was willing to sell his house, and everything he owned to get to Pakistan with all his supplies. He goes back to America with nothing at all to get money for a bridge right after being denied the ability to create a school. He approaches the people slowly and gains friends wherever he goes, making a second family over in Korphe. When he was confronted and asked to start the CAI Program, he accepted even though he probably knew what it meant in his work load. Another thing that really struck me was how little I knew about the origins of some programs such as Pennies for Peace. Before I read in this book on how kids that volunteered had created the program, and how Greg had made it official i didn't know how close to my life it really was. Pennies for Peace was one of the charities that my elementary school had done in the past years, and perhaps this out of all of the amazing things I have read, has convinced me that Greg Mortenson has come very far into our world today.
