" The Boy who Harnessed the Wind, an exciting book that takes you on the adventure of a poor villager, William Kamkwamba who later finds that he can make electricity from the air. With simple household items, he had created something no other 13 year old boy could make, a Windmill. Something that he wanted to make to give his family working lights and much more. Later in the book he is visited by famous newsreporters and later travels to the big TED conference where he explains how he did it and what happened. This was a truly amazing book and possibly my favorite right now, because it shows that if you put your mind to something no matter how big or how small, you can make it with simple items, and not only could you succeed or fail, it shows that you tried hard enough.
