What reading level is The Boy Who Harnessed the Wind book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
I was part of a panel discussion moderated by Dan Shine from Advanced Micro Devices’ 50x15 Initiative, which is working to connect 50 percent of the world’s population to the Internet by 2015. I’d met Dan in Arusha and he’d become my friend, so when he asked me to speak at this important event, I happily said yes.
I told the audience how I’d built my windmill and also about the different challenges I had faced, particularly when it came to finding a generator. I told them about Geoffrey, and tha...t I hoped he could begin teaching people in the surrounding villages to build windmills while I was away at school. At the end, someone in the audience raised their hand and asked me what the Malawian government thought about my project.
“The government doesn’t know about it,” I said. I knew this because I’d just informed the president myself.
Malawian president Bingu wa Mutharika was also attending the conference, and the night before, we were at the same dinner reception. I admired President Mutharika because he cared about us farmers and made it possible for families like mine to afford fertilizer once again.

A book to be read by anyone who thinks the impossible is impossible. Also a look at the extreme conditions many people must overcome just to survive."I went to sleep dreaming of Malawi, and all the things made possible when your dreams are powered by your heart."
