Boiling water over a little fire? Life is like that in many parts of Malawi, a small country in Africa.In 2001, William Kankwamba, a 14-year-old boy, had a simple wish — a light in his room. At that time, his family was so poor that he had to leave school. But he loved reading and wanted a light in his room so that he could read when it was dark. One day, he borrowed an 8th grade American textbook called Using Energy from a local library. He saw a picture of a windmill in it and decided to build one.People in his village thought that he was crazy when he asked for things to make it. "I was really sad when people laughed at me and took me as a fool." William said, "Even my parents thought it was too difficult for a little boy to do that." But William didn't give up. After thousands of tries of almost four years, he succeeded in the end! People all came to see the windmill he made from old cars and broken bikes.William has built three windmills in his 60-person village. They make enough electricity for lights,radios and a public TV, and helped pump clean water for both farms and family use.Now William wants to build more windmills across Malawi. "A windmill means more than just power, it means freedom."Money to help with this project has come from all over the world, including China. The village children can all afford to go to school now. Many have been encouraged to work on science.
