Three Cups of Tea
2009 LS 100 Summer reading book. Three Cups of Tea by Greg Mortenson and David Oliver Relin. This is the story of a mountaineer named Greg Mortenson who drifted into an impoversihed Pakistan village in 1993. Moved by the inhabitant' kindness, he promised to return and build a school. Three Cups of Tea is the story of that promise and it's extraordianry outcome. Over the next decade, Mortenson built not just one but fifty schools-especially for girls- in the forbidding terrain that gave birth to the Taliban. His story is at once a riveting adventure and a testament to the power of the humanitarian spirit.
