Tea Cups
What are some interesting points in Three Cups of Tea?
I have to write this book review about Three Cups of Tea and I totally forgot it was due today because she never said anything about it, its just in the syllabus. If you’ve read it before, what were some points in it that you thought you were interesting that I could write about?
Ok first and fore-most here is a link to a summary about the book i would rember to use words such as, unique-inspiring-fantasical-magical-dreamy-serious-(it has pazzaz) my teacher loves the words adore-giddy-and PAZZAZ!:) anyway here is the link and several links to foot notes that could help.

Here is how i started mine and some of the sentences and things from my paragraph that could be of assistant to you:).
As spouses, we spend so much of our time hoping the phone doesn’t ring, finding comfort in each other, that when we read a book like that, I think we automatically need to and want to see the positive.
Greg Mortenson’s story is so compelling – and such a bestseller – perhaps because – behind the hard work and daunting obstacles – it’s simple. Mortenson stumbled into a remote village after a failed attempt to climb a mountain. He got to know the villagers. They said they wanted a school for their girls. He built it. Almost two decades later, he’s still building schools in the region.
They want education for their families the way that we do here and so it humanizes a country that otherwise all we hear is the bad, the terrors, and just, the negatives. To me, it gives me chills and tears in my eyes to think that they’re just like we are, they just happen to live somewhere that we don’t get along with
For them to come home and say, mom, do you know for a nickel they can buy a notebook or something, they were very excited to help and, physically, to see that penny pile grow and grow and grow and for the kids to know what a difference they’re making, is incredible.
I cannot put into words the magnitude of what Mr. Mortenson has done for children.
three important points from the book that he wanted to impart from the troops. Now being a military general, he summarized them in three bullet points. He said, number one, we need to listen more, number two, we need to have respect, and number three, we have to build relationships. You don’t have to like people. You don’t even have to get along, but you do need to build relationships and start listening to people
i hope all my long typing has developed some sort of help towards you:)♥
Good Luck i have a positive feeling that your gonna A(ce) it::))♥♥☺☺♥☻☺☻♥♥♦♣♠8•••♥
