Highly Inspirational
Reading this book bought a lump to my throat and at times, I struggled to hold back the tears. It has really made me want to do something myself towards helping children to an education and to teach them how to help themselves to improve their lives.
Tears of laughter and sadness
I first heard about Kevin Allen last year, but didn't get around to buying his book until this week.
I read it on the train, and had to exercise considerable self restraint. At times I was nearly crying. At others I was laughing out loud.
As a Travel Photographer I have travelled extensively throughout East and Southern Africa, and had many experiences similar to Kevin's.
However, I could never describe the experiences as vividly as Kevin does, and although I do what I can to help those less fortunate, it is amazing the lengths to which he has gone, and the impact he continues to have on thousands of children.
Kevin - you are an inspiration.
