Non-Fiction Memoir
President Jimmy Carter’s compelling anecdotes inspire a
personal look at Habitat for Humanity that is sure to fire
up a younger generation. Somewhere in West Virginia, a thirteen-year-old girl now
invites friends home without embarrassment. In a Brazilian
village, children no longer sleep beneath a table when the
heavy rains come. For a quarter-century in over ninety
countries, Habitat for Humanity has built homes with and for
the people who need them, aided by more than a million
multigenerational volunteers. Two of the most devoted are
former president Jimmy Carter and his wife, Rosalynn — and
now this captivating account, abundantly illustrated with
photos, relays their favorite stories with special resonance
for young readers. Exploring everything from creative home design (like using
window bars in India to keep out monkeys) to the emotional
rewards of helping to build a house from the ground up, this
is an essential resource for inspiring future youth volunteers.
