Book Review: The Boy Who Harnessed the Wind

William Kamkwamba has an amazing story to tell.  At 14 years old, he built a windmill to power his family’s home in Malawi.  Above is a talk that he gave for Ted talks.  I just finished reading the book…it is a moving and inspiring story for teens to adults.  I highly suggest adding this to your “to read” list.
