I may be a bit late to the "tea party" but I just finished this book and am in awe of Greg Mortenson. I fear that I will butcher his story so put simply, Greg has made it his mission to educate the children (in particular the girls) of Pakistan and Afghanistan. His journey is inspiring. The people he meets, the lives he changes, the difference he has made and continues to make gives one pause. The good news is the publishing world realized it was a great story and have produced three versions: one for adults, one for young adults and a picture book. I imagine dinner table conversation possibilities are endless.
