I like Haji Ali the most of the characters in this book. He was a village leader who was always thinking about the people in the village. I have his favorite word. It's "Long after all those rams are dead and eaten this school will still stand. Haji Mehdi has food today. Now our children have education forever." He considers children's education to be more important than precious rams in the village. He invests in the future rather than immediate profits. It's for children studying in a poor environment. Although, it may be prejudice, people in poor countries are often the best to live and education to be postponed. In addition, people in that country work chidren. However, he probably had foresight in such an environment. Therefore, I think he's very smart.

I agree with you Taka. I think that the education is the most important in our life. I will miss you. I hope to enjoy Christmas with your family. Cheers
