Too Long; Didn't Read
<a href="http://www.amazon.com/The-Boy-Who-Harnessed-Wind/dp/0061730335" target="_blank">William Kamkwamba</a> is from Wimbe, a small rural village in Malawi, Africa. In late 2001, while his family was battling life-threatening famine, then 14-year-old Kamkwamba was forced to drop out of high school because his family could no longer afford his school’s fees. Rather than accept this fate, he educated himself by borrowing books from a small community library.
