With only a library book as his guide, 14-year-old William Kamkwamba sets about building a wind turbine in his Malawian village.

William Kamkwamba, a young Malawian, builds a power-generating windmill from junk parts to rescue his family from famine, transforming his life and catapulting him on to the the world stage. His fame and success lead him to new opportunities and complex choices about his future, distancing him from the life he once knew.—Anonymous
