Krátky popis
Discover the life of William Kamkwamba, the Malawian inventor and
engineer, who overcame poverty and famine to build windmills from
recycled materials that brought electricity to his village. Little
William grew up in a small village in Malawi. His parents were
farmers, so every day after school William and his six sisters
helped them tend the corn.One year, it rained so little that the
fields dried up and William's family could hardly pick any corn.
With not much to eat and unable to afford school, William had to
quit studying. But William refused to stop learning.So, whenever he
had the chance, he went to the library. One day, he found a book
that gave him a great idea: using the wind to make electricity and
pump water for the corn! Of course, building a windmill from
scratch was no easy task, but William was determined to make it
happen. And he did.As soon as the wind started blowing, the blades
began to turn and the tiny light bulb that William held in his
hands lit up. It was an invention that would eventually bring water
to the corn in his village and transform life for people across
Malawi. This thoughtful book features quirky illustrations
and&,nbsp,extra facts at the back, including a biographical
timeline with historical photos and a detailed profile of William’s
life.His story shows the importance of resourcefulness and the
power of education, and the ability to overcome challenges,
inspiring children to think creatively and make a positive impact
in their communities. Little People, BIG DREAMS is a bestselling
biography series for kids that explores the lives of outstanding
people, from designers and artists to scientists and activists. All
of them achieved incredible things, yet each began life as a child
with a dream.This empowering series of books offers inspiring
messages to children of all ages, in a range of formats. The board
books are told in simple sentences, perfect for reading aloud to
babies and toddlers. The hardback versions present expanded stories
for beginning readers.With rewritten text for older children, the
