Editorial Review:

Product Description:

"The one thing, on which we can all agree, is that God is with the vulnerable and poor. God is in the slums and in the cardboard boxes where the poor play house. God is in the debris of wasted opportunity and lives, and God is with us if we are with them. 6,500 Africans are still dying every day of a preventable, treatable disease, for lack of drugs we can buy at any drug store. This is not about charity, this is about Justice and Equality." --Bono

This small book, based upon the speech given by Bono at the 2006 NPB, delivers an inspiring and powerful message. Here, in Bono's own words, is a reflection on his own faith and a challenge to people of all faiths to reach across boundaries and come together on behalf of what the Scriptures call "the least of these."

Average Rating: out of 5 stars

- One Voice
On the Move is short and brief but the written words are so powerful that it moved congress and even president Bush. Bono used poetic words for his crusade in aiding Africa and he had the opportunity to present it to most powerful men in the United States at breakfast. Not only did he speak from his heart but it was simply one voice representing a poverish continent asking so little of the Americans poeple in order to change million of lives with fresh water and medicines. I truly reccommend this book, not only will you reflect on his speech but I hope that his words will move you to make a difference.

- Bono's Breakfast Prayer
I have always admired Bono's Red campaign and when I saw this book, I knew a lot of people who need to know that there is always a willingness and belief that we can conquer great challenges. It's inc(red)ible what a single man has been able to do. And he's inspi(red) in these times to keep pushing new ways to promote his goal of eliminating poverty.

Rating:

- A novelty read
An inspriring speech, seperated by touching photographs. For most, not something you would look at more than once or twice, but a good coffee book table or converation starter if your friends are they type that can talk about world poverty around a coffee table...

Rating:

- Buy it and share it!
Buy this book. Put it on your coffee table or beside your jacks. Let your friends read it so they can choose to share it.

Rating:

- It's a good read but...
...it's the kind of book that you'd read when you stumble across it at a library rather than actually order online. It takes no more than 15 minutes to finish reading the book (basically, Bono's speech to politicians about how they can help Africa). If you're an avid reader and looking for something that encapsulates your mind for at least a couple of hours, then skip this book.

I love Africa. I love Bono. If you know both well enough, there is nothing new that this book can tell you about him or the continent.
