The Day the World Came to Town: 9/11 in Gander, Newfoundland

 


I loved this well-written and well-narrated book about that horrible day.  No planes could fly in USA air space.  Most coming from Europe were diverted to Canadian airports, including the little town of Gander, Newfoundland.  The people of Gander and surrounding little towns welcomed thousands of people and worked tirelessly to meet the needs of the unexpected guests.  The stories were heartwarming and a beautiful reminder of the goodness of most people on this earth.  I highly recommend this one.  The audio version was very well done.
