There Is No Me Without You: One Woman's Odyssey to Rescue Africa's Children by Melissa Fay Greene
There Is No Me Without You: One Woman's Odyssey to Rescue Africa's Children

This nonfiction novel gracefully leads you through the current AIDS crisis in Ethiopia and sub-Saharan Africa by gracefully weaving stunning facts and statistics with human accounts and personalities. You won't be able to put it down. I have bought several copies of this important and wonderful book to loan out: It is that important and that good. It's one of the best books I've read in a very long time. This book could change the world.
