Fairy penguins

airy penguins live in Australia. They're different from other penguins because they're very
small. They’re only thirty-three centimetres tall. Other penguins live in very cold places, but
not fairy penguins. They don't like the cold. They make their nests under the ground, near the
sea. The baby penguins, called chicks, live in the nests. The father usually looks after the chicks
when they're young. The mother goes out and finds food. She swims all day and sometimes for
two days. She comes back to the nest at night to feed her chicks.

Who is William Kamkwamba?
YouTube is full of funny films, strange stories and some true stories,
like the story of William Kamkwamba. William lived in a small village
in Malawi, Africa, but he had big ideas. When he was young, there
wasn't any electricity or clean water in his village. William's family
didn't have much money, so he left school when he was fourteen. He
got a job, but he went to the library in the evening and
studied science books.
What was William's 'big idea'?
One day, William found an interesting book. In it, he saw pictures of
windmills. Windmills turn in the wind and they can make electricity.
William had an idea! He started to make a windmill from wood and an
old bike. 'You're crazy!' his friends said.
Did William's windmill make electricity?
Finally, William finished his windmill and YES! It turned in the wind.
One evening he connected the windmill to a small light bulb and
tested it. Did it make electricity? Yes, the windmill turned and there
was a small light in the dark!

on YouTube. He often travels to other
countries and talks about his ideas.
His friends don't think he's crazy now!

centimetre taller than me and our faces aren’t exactly
the same. Valeria’s nose is a little longer and her eyes
are bigger. Can you find any other differences?
Les, Twin%
We’re always interested in famous twins and our
favourites are Les Twins. Their real names are Larry
and Laurent Bourgeois. They’re from France. They’re
hip hop dancers. We love them! They always dance
together and sometimes they dance with other people
like Beyonce, Jay-Z and even Cirque du Soleil.
They’re really great!
Larry and Laurent look the same. They often have the
same hairstyles and wear the same clothes. People
don’t usually know which is Larry and which is
Laurent, but Valeria and I know! Larry is a little taller
than Laurent and his face is a little smaller. He’s also
funnier than his brother. There are other differences,
too. Can you see any in these photos?
