"Children holding hands around the world." That is my vision for peace through out the world. I teach third graders in a rural school in NC. One focus of study is communities around the world and what better way than to compare how different but also how we are alike in so many ways. For peace to happen children like my students will learn to appreciate and to respect other cultures

These third graders are transitional readers in that many are transitioning from picture books to chapter books. The young readers edition would provide the resource for them as well as enriching their knowledge of a different culture. At this point I do not have any other books that will work as well as I think these will.

I need 15 copies of Three Cups of Tea, young readers edition, to use as a resource to teach my third graders about another community in a different place which is part of the curriculum. I do not have multiple copies of a book such as this to have for my class.By allowing each student to have a copy each one can focus more on the content of the book. I want my students to have knowledge of the culture of Afghanistan and how important education is to the tribes of that country. By each student having a personal copy I believe that this is possible.

By donating these books you will provide my students a glimpse of how children in another part of the world (Afghanistan) live, work, and play just like we do. After reading this book my students will hopefully realize that although we live and go to school in different places our needs are all the same. You will also make it possible for my students in a small rural area become acquainted with and appreciate another culture on the other side of the world.
