The Boy Who Harnessed the Wind: Creating Currents of Electricity and Hope by William Kamkwamba

4.0

---

I really liked this book and found it very inspiring. The first 150 or so pages are quite hard to read as he and his entire family and village suffer such tragic times. But once William gets into the adventure of building his windmill, it is fascinating and inspiring and a very quick read. I cried many time in the last 10 pages because it was so touching.
