We Walk 4Water
Last year, Spencer West climbed Mount Kilimanjaro on his hands and using his wheelchair (Spencer is a double amputee).

But literature loving aside, the latest film incarnation, opening in theatres today across the country, had me at the trailer alone. It was all glitz, glam and retro-inspired fashion.
