The 9 year old girl that was just on Velshi's show broke me [View all]

Maybe because it was early, or I hadn't had my coffee yet, but Ali Velshi just interviewed a 9 year old girl who started "A Book and a Smile.org when she was just 4.
She now has a goal to give away 1 million books to one million kids.
I can't find the video clip of this interview, but I was almost sobbing when the interview ended.
What class!
What grace!
What a remarkable young person!
Maybe my reaction was because, with all the stuff going on that makes me think our country is lost and it's hopeless, she gave me a shining example of what we could be.
