William Kamkwamba (Little People, Big Dreams #128) | Maria Isabel Sanchez Vegara (Author) + Kirsti Beautyman (Illustrator) Jestenia Southerland Her dad cancelled her annualDiscover 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.
