Alexandria of Africa

Spoiler Alert So, this was a really short read and I don't know why but I thought it was a very cute read as well. Alexandria is your typical rich, spoiled American and after some trouble with the law she is sent to Africa to help build a school. When she first arrives she is keen on not having to do anything an is shocked but how little everyone has there. She has to learn how to do her hair without electricity, how to share the warm water with everyone, how people in the villages send the children to walk twenty minutes to get the water then twenty-five minutes, how there's no clinic close enough to Ruth's village that they have to try and wheel her mother to the closet village and there's plenty more. Furthermore, it was an interesting book to read and I enjoyed it very much. My only problem with this book is that it wasn't long enough I think it could have been a bit longer and then it would have been perfect.
