1)He thought the Korphe school was magnificent, and Greg used Hoerni's money to build it.
2)I find that the CAI and how they built 3 schools in only one year, which is a lot and that really was fast, which I thought was very, very amazing, and that Hushe Valley only had no educated woman except Shakeela, I was very surprised that Shakeela was the ONLY person to become educated EVER in Hushe Valley.

1. It shows that Jean is proud b/c Greg was able to make a school and more with his money. Also that the school was incredible and if Jean didn't give Greg the money it wouldn't have become so terrific.
2.I really liked the part where Amira was born, I thought that was a really sweet part. Also, I really liked how Greg made a womens' center for the women. That was so touching, b/c he had just finished making a school and now a womens' center.

1) Hoerni gave the Central Institute of Asia one million dollars. I could tell he cares about that school because it says "he wanted to ensure that the organization was solid on ground-just like the Korphe School"
2) I thought that one part in this chapter that really stood out from the rest, was when it talks about Mr. Parvi handing them the books. I though that was really sweet how Tahira described what she felt like when Mr. Parvi handed her the books.

1. Jean Hoerni donated 1 million dollars to the CAI to make sure it was on "solid ground", and he wanted to see the school the CAI built more than anything before he died.

2. I think it's kind of interesting that the CAI office in the basement laundry room of his house, and the fact that no matter how brilliant or clever or smart or wise a girl was, she either couldn't get an education or, if she could, she wouldn't be treated as fairly as the boys.

1.I knew that Heorni was proud of his part in the Central Asia Institute because when he saw the video of the children of Korphe singing Mary Had a Little Lamb he was very proud of himself and was happy about seeing the new school that he helped build before he died.
2.I think that the fact that Greg made an office for the Central Asia Institute in his basement laundry room was really cool because you don't really see a person making an office for a worldwide program in his/her basement everyday.

1. Hoerni said that the school built in Korphe was "Magnifique" (magnificent). He didnt die quietly, he was angry about dying but when Greg held his hand and showed him the videos he took in Korphe, of the children singing, his anger started to fade. He said to Greg, "I love you like a son."

2. I thought it was very interesting that Shakeela, Mohammed Aslam Khan's daughter, was so strong as to ignore what everyone else was saying, and get her education. I find this interesting because if it had been me, I most likely would have been very discouraged by what people were saying, and I might have given up my education. I also thought it was interesting that Mohammed Aslam Khan had to go so very far and even cross an icy river just to go to school. I think it is sad that he had to do so much to get an education. All that I have to do to go to school is rides my bike to the bus, and I wish he had had the ease that I had.
