The Boy Who Harnessed the Wind: Picture Book Edition by William Kamkwamba, Bryan Mealer
emotional
funny
hopeful
informative
lighthearted
medium-paced
4.0
An entertaining book that lives from the fresh and unusual perspective of the narrator. A few more illustrative sketches to go along with the technical descriptions would have been fine, but for me it was understandable. Especially because I took some electrical engineering courses at university this was a nice reminder what human ingenuity can achieve.
