Kris is a young Peace Corp volunteer and her request for assignment was Mali. She meets Monique, who's a young midwife in a poor village. I learned many heartbreaking facts about Mali, one of the poorest nations in the world. Monique quickly takes Kris under her wing and with Monique she experiences birth. The birth house, one of the only places women may have privacy is in a horrible shape and eventually the Peace Corp give their approval to have the birth house rebuilt. This is a worthy story about daily life struggle in Mali.
