I don't think I have ever read a book that touched me so much in my life. I was captured from page one to the end page. I really was shocked how i felt some connected to the people real lives ever. It thought it really not only opened my eyes to the truth about cultures so different from mine but also about how a simple act of kindness and friendship can really change somebody life. I rec. this book to anyone and has def become one of my favorite reads of the year!

If you need a heavy dose of reality about how amazing most of our lives really are, this book is for you. It made me look at my life differently and renewed a sense of gratitude that I think everyone could use a little more of. It paints a vividly colorful picture of life in another country and the impact that we can have on each other's lives through our actions and through telling our stories. Once I finished, I gave it to my pre teen straight away so we can share it.

I really liked this book!

Caitlin's side of the story was humorous, as I could relate to her junior-high girl drama, as well as her sensitive side, and how upset she gets that she and her friends make such big deals out of insignificant things, while Martin is struggling with life or death situations.

I enjoyed Martin's perspective as well, especially since I sponsor kids overseas through Compassion International. It was yet another way to try and see the world through their eyes.

I would recommend this to the junior-high and up crowd. It could be fun as a read-aloud for younger kids, if the reader makes some creative edits. (There are references to underage drinking and drugs, and Christian readers will want to be aware that there are at least two instances where "God" and "Jesus" are used as profanity.)
