What could he --
an ordinary boy --
do to help kids in Ecuador?
Based on real events, and through an imaginary diary,
Andrew shares the surprises, fun and joy from
his volunteer experiences, as he joins his parents on
a healthcare mission to make a difference
to children in Ecuador.
Along the way, Andrews discovers the courage to
do what he has never done before. Collecting over
1,000 stuffed animals to give away to children.
Waking at dawn for a cold shower. Distributing
toothbrushes to kids who never had one before, and
teaching them how to brush their teeth.
Working with Zully, the Director at
Causes for Change International. Andrew
steps into his new role as a leader.
While his dad serves as the dentist; and his mom entertains
as the music teacher, Andrew grows to understand how much
his actions matter as the toothbrushing teacher.
With Fuzzy Bear at his side, Andrew learns the
greatest lessons come in giving.
Author Lynn Sanders tells a uniquely personal story,
vibrantly illustrated by Sergio Drumond, to portray
the joy of volunteering that builds compassion,
unity and self-esteem for a lifetime.
