I love this story about a man passionately committed to books and kids. 

How many people would ride a donkey 8 hours *to give educational opportunities to someone else*?

I love teachers and librarians.  Crazy, wonderful, best people in the world.

Hug a teacher or librarian today.

      Here we are in America, with libraries closing due to lack of funding, and this guy is riding his burro to take books to kids.  I think we need less technology for our young people and more quiet time that inspires reading.
