review 1: This book made me cry - and I very rarely cry. I love the LOVE and determination that Twesigye Jackson Kaguri has. This is a book about wanting more in life and taking the very big steps to make sure that the people back home have what they need. In this case the main desire is a clean water source and school (for everyone - no matter what). It is inspiring, heartbreaking, eye-opening, and it will make your hear swell with joy. I recommend this book for anyone and everyone.
review 2: This is kind of an average "do-gooder in the developing world" book. Not particularly well written but nice to read anyway. What I liked most was the author's voice. I admire his determination to found a school for AIDS orphans without bribing government officials. I also appreciat... moreed a realistic description of Uganda. Kaguri's Kamapala and Kanungu District rings true to my experience staying in Kampala and then driving to the villages to spend the Christmas holiday near Kabale -- as the guest of an AIDS orphan. less
