00:53People liked Lincoln because he was kind and smart.

02:25People went to him when they had problems.

02:33Why have you come to me?

02:41But when that woman's baby died, she stole my baby.

02:48No! She's lying! It's my baby!

02:55The two women were finding.

03:01Hmm. I think it's the left one.

03:05No! The right one!

03:08King Solomon, please, tell us who the real mother is.

03:16There is one baby, but two mothers.

03:24King Solomon thought deeply.

03:29Hey you! Cut that baby in half, then give it to each of them.

03:36The soldier picked up a big, sharp knife.

03:40The two women and people were shocked when he was about to cut the baby in half.

03:47Stop!

03:49My king! I will give up the baby.

03:53Just give it to her.

03:56Ha! I told you! It's mine!

04:01But then King Solomon said,

04:05Give this baby to that woman.

04:10No parent wants to hurt their baby.

04:14The woman who saved her baby is the real mother.

04:19Thank you! My king!

04:28People were surprised by King Solomon's wisdom.

05:07Everyone, please come here. I am a doctor.

05:12They were Schweitzer and his people.

06:10Africa was very hot.

07:44There was no water to drink.

07:47People were thirsty.

07:49It hasn't been raining.

07:52Everything dried up.

07:59Wonguri was so sad.

08:04She began to tell people.

08:09Please listen.

08:11This is how trees help us.

08:13We have to plant trees.

08:17Wonguri began to plant trees with many people.

08:24Even when trees died, Wonguri didn't give up.

08:30One day, the government tried to cut down all the trees.

08:38Stop!

08:40Kenya is dying!

08:45Get out.

08:46I will send you to jail.

08:50Wonguri was put in jail.

08:55Many people were impressed by Wonguri.

09:00Wonguri is right.

09:02She just tried to plant trees.

09:05We will help her too.

09:08Let's plant trees.

09:10Let's make our land green.

09:14Tree planting campaigns were spreading over the world.

09:19This became the Green Belt Movement.

09:26At last, 51 million trees were planted in Africa.

09:34Animals came back and people were able to get water.

09:40Wonguri received a Nobel Peace Prize.

09:46She continued the movement until she died.

09:53People named her the Mother of Trees.

10:00A man stood up and read a book.

10:49It was the same text from the book.

10:51What?

10:52How can you read some dots?

10:57These dots are used by many blind people to read and write.

11:03The dots are called Braille.

11:05The person who made this is Louis Braille.

11:13He was blind but wanted to read many books.

11:20But the books for the blind were too heavy and hard to read.

11:30He also couldn't write anything.

11:38Is there a good idea?

11:45Today, he touched some secret codes used by soldiers.

11:50What is this?

11:52We make holes into paper with a tool.

11:55Then we can read this code.

11:58Yes, this is it.

12:04Louis then created Braille for the blind.

12:13Braille was introduced to a lot of people.

12:18Now, blind people could read and write.

12:34Braille became very popular and is still used today.
