I'm shelving it for now. Will pick it up again later, if I get around to it.

I was inspired to read this book after attending an event in which Craig Kielburger was the keynote speaker. I was aware of his story somewhat prior to but didn't know the full details. I found him a very engaging speaker however and wanted to know more about his organization which is why I decided to read his book.

Please keep in mind that he wrote this book when he was 16 years old however, despite that it was a fairly good read - quick and insightful.

I think this would be a great book for educators and parents to give or recommend that their children read. For children, learning about someone who is their age and was able to make a difference could open a whole new world to them and engage them to find their passion.

All I have to say is this: I read this book in 2011, did a few benefit concerts after being inspired by it, and now I am going to Kenya thanks to this wonderful organization. A must read? I think so.
