Margarita: A Guatemalan Peace Corps Experience

Rating:
Summary: Read like a journal
Review: I enjoyed this book, but it seemed more like I was reading directly from the author's journal. The author would be writing about an event and then abruptly end the paragraph and start a new one on a completely different topic. This aside, the book was a good read and gave a insight into her time in Guatemala.

Rating:
Summary: A very inspiring thorough read
Review: Margarita is a very thorough account of the author's experiences as she travels in and out of small towns in Guatemala. Her Guatemala experiences, demonstrates the act of an heroine. After reading Margarita, I applaused this courgeous sixty-two years old young heroine for taking on a culture that she barely spoke their language in her efforts to teach nutrition. Amazingly well written, I strongly recomemmed it as a strong noteworthy read.

Summary: Daughter of a Guatemalan Peace Corps Volunteer
Review: My Mother also served as a Peace Corps Volunteer in Guatemala. "Margarita" gave a wonderful description of what life was like, in that area, for those volunteers, whose families, back in the states, eagerly waited for news from them. We wondered about their safety, their health, yet being oh so proud of their contributions to the quality of life of the people whom they served. American parents expect their children to "spread their wings", but when your Mother, at age 68, says she's going off to serve in a far place, that's a different story!
