Last summer my daughter handed me this book and implored me to read it. Since she knows me so well, I read the book and learned so much about two countries, its people, and their culture. I was also impressed by Dr. Greg's story, and his journey to help children by building schools.
Later, I shared this book with one of my professors in a course where we were studying critical thinking and literacy. We were discussing oppression of different races and cultures, and I happened to mention Three Cups of Tea. My professor ended up reading the book on one of her trips and came back dicussing the book in our course. Now pre-college students at MSU are reading Three Cups of Tea in their summer reading course, and I am enjoying reading it again once more.
I am so happy to be a part of this unique experience at MSU. I hope that all of you enjoy reading the book, and more importantly that Dr. Greg's story will have an impact on your lives.

Welcome to Reading Workshop
Hi, My name is Patti Dobish, and I am working with Ms. Anderson this summer as a tutor for the course. I am very excited about working with college students at MSU. I am hoping that you will have a wonderful experience. My undergraduate degree was in English and my graduate degree is in Reading from MSU.
