This is a moving story which juxtaposes the lives of a wealthy city teenaged who lives in Australia and a girl of the same age who lives in the poverty-stricken Democratic Republic of Congo, Africa, and takes the reader through an ordinary day in each of their lifestyles. Through their daily activities, a sad, thought-provoking comparison is provided. 
An enlightening and touching story about the severeness of the global issue of poverty, which reminds us of the many things we should be grateful for instead of taking them for granted.
