Boy Who Harnessed The Wind, The - Young Readers Edition

Kamkwamba, William

Now a Netflix film starring and directed by Chiwetel Ejiofor, this is a gripping memoir of survival and perseverance about the heroic young inventor who brought electricity to his Malawian village. When a terrible drought struck William Kamkwamba´s tiny village in Malawi, his family lost all of the season´s crops, leaving them with nothing to eat and nothing to sell. William began to explore science books in his village library, looking for a solution. There, he came up with the idea that would change his family´s life forever: he could build a windmill. Made out of scrap metal and old bicycle parts, William´s windmill brought electricity to his home and helped his family pump the water they needed to farm the land. Retold for a younger audience, this exciting memoir shows how, even in a desperate situation, one boy´s brilliant idea can light up the world. Complete with photographs, illustrations, and an epilogue that will bring readers up to date on William´s story, this is the perfect edition to read and share with the whole family.
