I like what the story is about, however the book has so much detail it is hard to get through the first chapters.

My wife was reading this at the same time I was reading Dave Eggers' fantastic novel What is the What. We were supposed to trade when we finished, but she couldn't read this book without wanting to tell me about each chapter. br /br /I finally read it a year later and am sorry I spent the previous year with just my wife's summary. Greene is a great writer --she mixes great storytelling with a reporter's eye for research and information. The book itself, based on any description of it, should be intensely depressing to read, but, because of Greene, I think, is actually very life affirming and energizing. br /br /I think it would be hard to read this book and not feel a certain, almost painful, overflowing love for the world. It's absolutely great.


5 out of 5 stars A 10 Page Blessing   January 11, 2008

I can honestly say this is the first PDF to make me cry at work. It's hard to believe 10 pages can touch a person's life the way this Short touched mine. I encourage everyone to read this Short and then do as I did, read the book "There's No Me Without You." You won't regret it.


5 out of 5 stars Excellent!   December 28, 2007
Purchased this book as we're adopting a child from Ethiopia. Excellent book, great information about the orphan crisis in Ethiopia and also about the AIDS crisis in Africa. Worth the time if you're considering adooption or just concerned about the plight of the orphan.
