Monique and The Mango Rains

LOVE LOVE LOVE this book!!! If you like a story that takes you to a far away place and lets you sit with the locals around a cooking fire this is it.
A young woman is sent to Mali by the peace corps to assist a local midwife in her daily rounds and set up a better clinic for the women.
All I can say is WOW. Its an eye opener for any westerner to see what daily life in Mali is like let alone what its like for it 's pregnant women. As a reader I felt a part of it and when the book was finished I had to lend it to as many people as possible.
If you haven't read it yet you need to.
