DESCRIPTION:

Discover the life of William Kamkwamba, the Malawian inventor and engineer, who overcame poverty and famine to build windmills from recycled materials that brought electricity to his village. Little William grew up in a small village in Malawi with his parents, who were farmers, and his siblings. One day, he found a book that gave him a great idea: using the wind to make electricity and pump water for the corn! It was an invention that would eventually transform life for people across Malawi. This thoughtful book features quirky illustrations and extra facts at the back, including a biographical timeline with historical photos and a detailed profile of William's life.
