Mu Mengjie and his school for the blind 内容简介
本书为“新时代的中国人”系列丛书之一，讲述盲人穆孟杰从流浪学艺，到创办特教学校的感人故事。
海伦·凯勒自传《假如给我三天光明》，感动了无数的人。眼睛看不见，心可以看见。盲人不能用眼睛去看，但可以用心灵去“看”，去观察和思考，可以在心灵中“看见”美丽，“看见”真善美。本书主人公穆孟杰，是河北省邢台市平乡县平乡镇东辛寨村的一位普通盲人。他没上过一天学，从十三岁开始拄着竹竿，独自外出流浪、乞讨，体验了人间种种炎凉和辛酸。由于刻苦用功，执着努力，他通过说唱卖艺实现自食其力，并成功地掘到了人生的*桶金。成为百万富翁后，他回到家乡成功地建起盲人学校，并向所有盲人开放，不设入学门槛，不收任何费用，直到盲生学会本领毕业。他的事迹上了国家电视台，他还有“百年名校”的梦想……
Mu Mengjie was a blind farmer who lived in Dongxinzhai Village, in a town called Ping Xiang in Hebei Province. Though he never received any formal education, Mengjie’s dream from a young age was to live a respectable, meaningful life. With a bamboo stick in hand, he ventured out at age 13 and made a living as a street performer, tasting all the bitterness the world had to offer. With perseverance and passion, he became a storyteller, well known in cities like Baoding, Shijiazhuang, and earned his first “pot of gold” in life. Once Mengjie became a millionaire, no one expected that he would be so determined to open a school for the blind in his hometown. His school would accept anyone who was visually impaired regardless of their condition and charged no fees. Students could continue to study at the
school until they mastered their skills. With a pure mind and a kind heart, Mengjie offered lots of help which benefited many blind people and their families.
