Wow. Simply but powerfully told, this book is truly an inspiration.

This is an incredible read. I would suggest it for anyone who drinks water... which should be everyone. The things we take for granted. Amazing. This is a really quick read, and while it might take a little prodding at first, I think its well worth it.

Eye-opening

What a story! So sad, but inspiring. I found it hard to believe that my daughter was given this to read in 3rd grade, but she loved it. I think it's really cool that part of it takes place in my hometown.

Powerful story! My prayer is for young adults to be appreciative of the lifestyle and conveniences offered to them. This is not often offered in other cultures and should never be taken for granted.
