Extraordinary personal stories from around the world. Today, the American girl dubbed ' a feral child', severely neglected and unable to talk and now blossoming in a new home. We hear from her adoptive mother. From Iceland, the comedy actor elected to run Reykjavik on how he's playing the role of mayor, and the South African bookworm who beat the bullies.
