There are so many better books for kids out there. This one is abysmal. Avoid. How do these kind of books get such wide distribution?

Hey Shawn... just finished "Mountains Beyond Mountains" and I thought "I bet Shawn would enjoy this!" If you wanna feel inspired it's a great read! He opens a small medical clinic in rural Haiti, but some of his work is about access to clean water too. Mountains Beyond Mountains: The Quest of Dr. Paul Farmer, A Man Who Would Cure the World
