This is not just a story of paraffin lanterns being put out and replaced with light bulbs; this is the story of a village saved by one of their own.The industry of Mr Kamkwamba includes using nails and magnets off an old stereo speaker to create a circuit breaker, and a light switch cobbled together from bicycle spokes and flip-flop rubber.The author spent a year with Mr Kamkwamba writing The Boy Who Harnessed the Wind which has just been published in the US.Mealer says Mr Kamkwamba represents Africa's new "cheetah generation", young people, energetic and technology-hungry, who are taking control of their own destiny."Spending a year with William writing this book reminded me why I fell in love with Africa in the first place," says Mr Mealer, 34."It's the kind of tale that resonates with every human being and reminds us of our own potential."Can it be long before the film rights to the triumph-over-adversity story are snapped up, and William Kamkwamba, the boy who dared to dream, finds himself on the big screen?Step 2: Things to Do When ReadingTrack where you needed to look at the context carefully to find meaning.Identify three words where context seemed to help you understand the meaning of what you were reading.Write out these words and the context that helped you.
