    About this ebook

    Story by Steve Little, author of children?s stories and railroad histories.
    Illustrations by Lydia Orange, college freshman and first-time illustrator.
    What?s it like in the twenty-first century to live in a Central American village
    so small and remote that it doesn?t even appear on many maps?
    What?s it like for a family of seven to live in a small two-room house
    with no electricity, no inside running water, and no glass windows?
    A visitor on a mission team from North Carolina spoke with a girl in
    La Gracia, Belize on her 11th birthday.
    Read her amazing, powerful, and inspiring words.
    You will look at your own life and conditions in a different way.
    You may even want to do more than you ever thought about before.
