  4. Story Time!! Javier “When he was 5, Javier started carrying meals to his father who worked as a miner high in the moon-like Andes mountains. He would often linger, scrabbling through the waste rock outside the mine entrance to see if he could find some ore-bearing chunk that the miners had overlooked. Within a few years, he was working in the mine, hauling buckets of water and pushing wheelbarrow loads of ore. He didn’t start first grade until he was 9, and even then, he went to the mine after school, often staying long into the night.” Today, children are banned from working in the mine. There is a high school that has been built above Javier’s community. This is great but there are still children working in other mines in different parts of Latin America that we can’t forget!
