I am 26 yrs old. The project that we are currently working on in Ecuador is very important to me for several reasons. I was born in Ecuador, and we lived there until I was four years old. My parents and I moved to the United States so my brother Lucas and I could have better opportunities. My dads entire family still lives in Ecuador. My family could have very easily stayed in the small rural community that I was born in. Although it is one of the most beautiful places I have ever been, and the people are wonderful the educational system is lacking. I am currently a fourth grade teacher and my favorite subject to teach is reading. I have seen books do amazing things for children. Books provide knowledge, new thinking, entertainment, and imagination. I think that every child should have access to a library, books can do magical things.
