A heartfelt thank you to Sara Prouty for hosting a fantastic book club discussion on A Long Walk to Water! Sara shared powerful stories, photos, and videos from her recent trip to Africa. She and her husband, Bill, formed a lasting friendship with one of their tour guides—a connection made even more poignant after learning that his own family still walks to fetch water every day. <figure id="figure-axq7xa5yjrmt0fz64n"><img id="axq7xa5yjrmt0fz64n" src="https://cdn.durable.co/blocks/3aGGnMhxE7IGz1G81RnzB5Xb2kuEjGhFo02yBu0fApnT9MKJbiQj9ktgNAu3O4eY.jpg" alt="" title="" class="object-cover bg-gray-100 rounded-sm md:rounded-md lg:rounded-lg" style="aspect-ratio: 16/9; object-position: center center;" data-corners="default" data-aspect="16:9" data-caption="" data-positionx="undefined" data-positiony="undefined" data-fullwidth="false" data-mce-src="https://cdn.durable.co/blocks/3aGGnMhxE7IGz1G81RnzB5Xb2kuEjGhFo02yBu0fApnT9MKJbiQj9ktgNAu3O4eY.jpg" data-mce-style="aspect-ratio: 16/9; object-position: center center;"></figure><figure id="figure-iwwerfjwipmt0caugq"><img id="iwwerfjwipmt0caugq" src="https://cdn.durable.co/covers/33bW3aM3njt2lHruW3oQs4ElUIe9sBasxfUrExkaMx6Lo9FCFLcTjBAINTt1OaF7.jpg" alt="" title="" class="object-cover bg-gray-100 rounded-sm md:rounded-md lg:rounded-lg" style="aspect-ratio: 16/9; object-position: center center;" data-corners="default" data-aspect="16:9" data-caption="" data-positionx="undefined" data-positiony="undefined" data-fullwidth="false" data-mce-src="https://cdn.durable.co/covers/33bW3aM3njt2lHruW3oQs4ElUIe9sBasxfUrExkaMx6Lo9FCFLcTjBAINTt1OaF7.jpg" data-mce-style="aspect-ratio: 16/9; object-position: center center;"></figure><figure id="figure-ylv7ul9cmt0c9zq2"><img id="ylv7ul9cmt0c9zq2" src="https://cdn.durable.co/covers/30R2lvZY2d4kuP3fvPuu0RxFKVVkK4fDj8htDXKE3Bbwvwn1MxIZlG71lymzKqn7.jpg" alt="" title="" class="object-cover bg-gray-100 rounded-sm md:rounded-md lg:rounded-lg" style="aspect-ratio: 16/9; object-position: center center;" data-corners="default" data-aspect="16:9" data-caption="" data-positionx="undefined" data-positiony="undefined" data-fullwidth="false" data-mce-src="https://cdn.durable.co/covers/30R2lvZY2d4kuP3fvPuu0RxFKVVkK4fDj8htDXKE3Bbwvwn1MxIZlG71lymzKqn7.jpg" data-mce-style="aspect-ratio: 16/9; object-position: center center;"></figure><figure id="figure-nkv04irpamt0c7npb"><img id="nkv04irpamt0c7npb" src="https://cdn.durable.co/covers/2eDSWo34yepEeVafk4oxM2zOcuPUoshScybfaWDKFwoYR3PS71ZecEjEWnQcVb4Z.jpg" alt="" title="" class="object-cover bg-gray-100 rounded-sm md:rounded-md lg:rounded-lg" style="aspect-ratio: 16/9; object-position: 0% undefined%;" data-corners="default" data-aspect="16:9" data-caption="" data-positionx="0%" data-positiony="undefined%" data-fullwidth="false" data-mce-src="https://cdn.durable.co/covers/2eDSWo34yepEeVafk4oxM2zOcuPUoshScybfaWDKFwoYR3PS71ZecEjEWnQcVb4Z.jpg" data-mce-style="aspect-ratio: 16/9; object-position: 0% undefined%;"></figure><figure id="figure-0bc7jmzlfmt0c80r7" class=""><img id="0bc7jmzlfmt0c80r7" src="https://cdn.durable.co/covers/32UAFmbWuAYJXBnfBhRtxGR6UHxbzEBm5ADMC01d8qq0sPe5hPknGDoEHnPmRkZQ.jpg" alt="" title="" class="object-cover bg-gray-100 rounded-sm md:rounded-md lg:rounded-lg" style="aspect-ratio: 16/9; object-position: center center;" data-corners="default" data-aspect="16:9" data-caption="" data-positionx="undefined" data-positiony="undefined" data-fullwidth="false" data-mce-src="https://cdn.durable.co/covers/32UAFmbWuAYJXBnfBhRtxGR6UHxbzEBm5ADMC01d8qq0sPe5hPknGDoEHnPmRkZQ.jpg" data-mce-style="aspect-ratio: 16/9; object-position: center center;"></figure><figure id="figure-pfo4altblmt0c97aa" class="selected"><img id="pfo4altblmt0c97aa" src="https://cdn.durable.co/covers/31uYTq17E34JISwHBa5UTtCrtMg2TXQBwIqQAjk5Hb1MYlr6t5cGVDnzPzYGcxe3.jpg" alt="" title="" class="object-cover bg-gray-100 rounded-sm md:rounded-md lg:rounded-lg" style="aspect-ratio: 16/9; object-position: center center;" data-corners="default" data-aspect="16:9" data-caption="" data-positionx="undefined" data-positiony="undefined" data-fullwidth="false" data-mce-src="https://cdn.durable.co/covers/31uYTq17E34JISwHBa5UTtCrtMg2TXQBwIqQAjk5Hb1MYlr6t5cGVDnzPzYGcxe3.jpg" data-mce-style="aspect-ratio: 16/9; object-position: center center;"></figure>
