New York Times Bestseller - Now a Netflix film starring and directed by Chiwetel Ejiofor! A gripping memoir of survival and perseverance about the heroic young inventor who brought electricity to his Malawian village. When a terrible drought struck William Kamkwamba's tiny village in Malawi, his family lost all of the season's crops, leaving them with nothing to eat and nothing to sell. William began to explore science books in his village library, looking for a solution. There, he came up with the idea that would change his family's life forever: he could build a windmill. Made out of scrap metal and old bicycle parts, William's windmill brought electricity to his home and helped his family pump the water they needed to farm the land. Retold for a younger audience, this exciting memoir shows how, even in a desperate situation, one boy's brilliant idea can light up the world. Complete with photographs, illustrations, and an epilogue that will bring readers up to date on William's story, this is the perfect edition to read and share with the whole family.Author: William Kamkwamba,Bryan Mealer

Love it!
Format: Hardcover
I tell you what, I have been researching for months for the perfect Ethiopian Bible for myself. I have a kindle version of a different one, and it crashes my kindle. So on to hunt for the perfect hard copy. Took me forever y’all. Similar to how there’s other translations of Bibles, it seemed not all wording was the same for every Ethiopian Bible I looked into. Nothing major, just little touches here and there. Some wording was bland and couldn’t hold my attention because it was dry, and some the print was soooo tiny, etc. I wanted some flair. My kindle version had it, but there wasn’t a hard copy of it. And then I found this one. The wording is beautiful. It’s got flair. It’s flowery without being excessive. It’s very descriptive in a way that stirs my soul. I was looking for that in the English version. This has an almost whimsical vibe but not in a Disney way. I’m not sure I can wholly express myself here. This Bible is simply absolutely stunning. The verbiage is beautiful, without pushing the boundary into frufru. It’s honest yet descriptive. It blooms without needless extra junk. It sticks to the truth while being almost poetry. I really don’t know how to describe it. I just know I read a sample of it on the kindle version and it really spoke to me. Genesis 1:1 was all I needed to see to know this was what I’d been searching for. I’m really glad I chose this one.
So the writing style: I firmly believe the writer was touched by God during this process. I already said I loved the style. But for most of us, that’s how we choose a translation. It’s one we can easily read, and one that keeps us interested. And this one just ignited me. It’s perfect. This is a true blessing to read.
The artwork is beautiful. They are in the pencil drawing style. I like the lack of color. The facial expressions are so good too. I don’t know if they were hand drawn and replicated, or if it’s AI. Either way the art is chefs kiss.
The font you guys! I can read this as a hard copy. I also bought a magnifier, but returned it. Granted, I do have a new pair of bifocals, but this font size is manageable and better than other books. Any smaller and it would be too small for me to read though, so it’s not a large print. I usually prefer kindle so I can adjust the font and it’s portable. This font is on par with a few other hard copy Bibles I have, so it’s doable.
The size of the Bible is considered 2xl. So I was able to find a Bible book cover for it. I’m just not sure my Bible tabs will still allow it to fit
Bible tabs. I haven’t put them on because I mentioned above they might not fit in the Bible cover. So I’m gonna have to make a compromise somewhere. But that really doesn’t have to do with the book though huh. I wish this Bible came with the thumb indention at the start of the chapters. It would be helpful because there’s also nothing at the top of the page to tell you where you’re at. And there’s no included ribbon page markers. I feel that if I’m gonna stick to the idea of wanting to use my tabs, I’ll have to switch to a Bible bag instead of a zippered cover. Yes, the inside of the Bible matters more than the outside of it, but I still want a cute unakward way to carry it.
I like that this is hardback. I wasn’t sure how I’d feel. But this Bible is pretty big. I feel a softback cover would bend too much while you’re trying to read, and it would be unwieldy. I plan on dragging this around with me to church and can appreciate its sturdiness.
Now this physical copy has 88 books in it. A Protestant Bible has the traditional 66. This has an extra 22 chapters in it. So carrying it is manageable. Again, it’s big, but portable. Then mine has an additional 713 books available digitally.
So the digital content is neat. There’s a menu of all the extra available content. There’s daily rewards, chats, audio and video options, and a forum. It’s not an app though. So it has you start on a webpage. From there I was able to send it to my Home Screen, and just pretend it’s an app. But it not being an app isn’t a dealbreaker. And I do not know if you buy the kindle version, if all the extra content is on kindle or still the webpage. Also, they are quick to respond to everyone. My only concern though, is that it says my digital content is only available for a year. This is a lot of content and I’m not sure I’ll finish it in a year. I don’t know what happens after the year, to be able to keep reading. I’ll have to ask them because it’s quite extensive content and I want to see it all.
I’ve been struggling lately. I need some Jesus on my life. I wanted a Bible to connect with, that makes reading it enjoyable. I have no doubt this book is going to be a major component in helping me return to the light. Thank you Edward Jones and team. This will truly change so many lives.
I originally received the one containing only 500 something books. Getting it replaced with the 801 books version was easy peasy. I love a smooth resolution.
