"Against a backdrop featuring some of the most beautiful and remote landscapes in the world, the phenomenal resilience and indomitable spirit of these young workers is both inspiring and heart breaking... The harsh reality of Hari Raj's [a 17-year-old who carries heavy loads to communities throughout the Himalayan Mountains] daily life provides insight into his perspectives and hopes and helps viewers understand the struggles within many developing nations for a subsistent quality of life. A moving, unforgettable exploration of child labor for secondary schools with a strong social justice curriculum." - School Library Journal
