Description
Sometimes funny, sometimes sad, but often touching, this book tells us unique stories that will make you see the world from a different eye. From India to the desert of Gobi, going through South America and Africa, those simple shared stories teach us how engaged people can change lives one gesture at a time, by getting involved in humanitarian work. From the heartfelt cry of an Ecuadorian mother who wants her child to be educated to the distress of a victim of brutality in Peru, each chapter sheds an authentic light on the lives of some of the poorest people in the world.
