‘The boy who harnessed the wind’ is a book writing by himself Willam Kamkwanba and Bryan Mealer. This book is illustrated by Elizabeth Zunon. Willam has always been interested in how mechanical things work, the town of Malawi is where he grew up. There was no electricity in Malawi so when the sun went down everyone went to sleep as well. He started reading old science books and taught himself English so he could understand them. He became determined to build a windmill, the people in the village thought he was crazy but he knew he would succeed. Slowly he built the windmill out of junkyard scraps. He made the windmill and succeeded. I can make some connections with this book.  The first connection is text to self because I have felt creative before and wanted to make something to help people. The second connection I made was text to world. Because I am sure that there are a lot of kids who live in pour countries and want to do something to help their people too.
