Matt’s Reviews > The Boy Who Harnessed the Wind: Creating Currents of Electricity and Hope > Status Update

I am really excited because now that William's family has harvested the maize and doesn't have to worry about hunger, he can now focus on creating the windmill.

I am wondering if William will somehow be able to go back to school.

I knew William could do it. He is really smart and it's his passion to work on things that involve science. Now he wants to create a bigger windmill. I already know he can do it.

I believe William can do this. He and Gilbert are very smart with batteries and energy because they created a dynamo with a bike and radio.

It's really good that everything is starting to come back to normal. William and his family and can eat more now that the Dowe is ripe.

These poor, poor people of Malawi. They just can't get a break. First the famine, and now sickness. I am wondering how William and his family will stay alive as they keep eating less and less food.

I am really upset that William could not stay in his school and had to drop out. The school was his passion. I am hoping he won't give up on his passion for science and how things work.

This is not how anybody should celebrate their Christmas. Starving. I am really grateful that this is not in the United States.

I'm getting more and more nervous as this famine is getting worse. I don't think William and his family will be able to feed themselves and the dog Khamba. I'm nervous to see what will happen next.

I have no idea how Malawi is going to get out of this. It's not like they can grow any maize because it's not raining at all. How are they going to survive?
