Listen to the Wind: The Story of Dr Greg and Three Cups of Tea by Greg Mortenson and Susan L. Roth

This is a picture book version of the story of the author's initial adventures in Pakistan. It recounts his efforts to build a school for children in the village of Korphe, whose residents helped him when he was lost during a mountain-climbing outing. The text is excellent in its simplicity. Collage illustrations are well done but some may be confusing for young children. End matter includes photographs, maps, and an artist's note appropriate for an adult reader. For K-3.
