There is No Me Without You

I have just finished one of the best books I have ever read. There is No Me Without You is an amazing story about a widow in Ethiopia who opens her home to orphan children. First there are four, then overnight eight, and the numbers continue to soar. The majority of these children have lost their parents to HIV/AIDS, and their stories are amazing. So many times I would put my book down and tell my husband "I had no idea . . . . " The number of people with HIV/AIDS is sickening, the fight to get the drugs to these people is even worse, and I found myself wanting to sell and send as much we we could to help.

Great read. You won't be disappointed!

I've heard great things about his book from others too. It is on my list of reading for this year.
