After reading the book, students could write about a time they helped fix something at home, like repairing a broken chair or cooking dinner together.

This book tells the story of a determined family who never gives up, working together to fix every broken part of their quirky car. Despite the car's problems “it couldn‘t make it fast and couldn‘t make it far“ the family shows resilience by using their lake toys to patch it up and keep going. The simple yet colorful illustrations capture their positive attitude.

Let‘s see how many new African countries the author can fit into this book because now we are in the #CentralAfricanRepublic #CAR (I just learned Bangui is its capitol). I do feel like this author has tried to cram every thriller trope into this novel (even the Vatican), and pretty much covered nearly as many Saharan and near Saharan countries (plus a few European countries to boot).

The author, already dedicated to helping the least fortunate on the planet, took a decade of her life to bring down the evil LRA operating in 4 African countries. Through sheer persistence and support from the likes of Archbishop Desmond Tutu and Warren Buffet‘s son Howard (a dedicated humanitarian himself), Davis achieved almost the impossible over unbelievable odds. Tutu‘s description is accurate: this a beautiful and moving account of her ⬇️

Texreader story. I hope and anticipate that she will share with the world her next story, whatever it is, which is sure to be equally human and triumphant as this one. And I‘m so proud she‘s from my hometown of San Antonio. You go girl!! I highly recommend this book. All proceeds go to her foundation to carry out more unprecedented missions like this one.
