“In Stones Into Schools Greg Mortenson brings us up to date on the progress of the Central Asia Institute's efforts to build schools in Pakistan and Afghanistan (now at over 130 schools). While reading this book produces a sense of the overwhelming obstacles and hardship faced by people in this region of the world, it also provides some wonder and hope about how much can be accomplished by so few people, with so little money.”

Description


Based on the New York Times bestseller, this adaptation of Stones into Schools tells the story of a remarkable humanitarian campaign to build schools, empower communities, and educate girls and boys. Picking up where Three Cups of Tea left off, Stones into Schools tells the story of Greg Mortenson's work with the Central Asia Institute building schools and relationships in the secluded northeast corner of Afghanistan. This adaptation includes a special foreword by Angelina Jolie, who is a champion of Mortenson's work, and an introduction by former Supreme Court Justice Sandra Day O'Connor, and many new never-before-seen color photos, as well as a glossary and a new afterword by Khyber Mortenson, Greg Mortenson's young son.
