«Three Cups of Tea: Young Reader's Edition» is the young adult essay by Greg Mortenson and David Oliver Relin, published by Viking Books for Young Readers in paperback (240 pages, in English).
The book recounts how mountaineer Greg Mortenson, after a failed attempt to climb K2 in Pakistan in 1993, meets the inhabitants of a remote village and commits to building them a school. His project eventually becomes a campaign that raises dozens of schools, many of them for girls, in the most isolated regions of Pakistan and Afghanistan.
The young reader's edition adapts the bestseller «Tres tazas de té» and includes photographs, illustrations, and an interview with Amira Mortenson, daughter of the author and activist of the Pennies for Peace program.
Aimed at young readers from about 8 years old, it also serves as school reading or for those seeking real stories of cooperation and education in conflict zones.
