The Lion boy
This is an amazing story of how a 13 year old boy developed a blinking light contraption to scare the loins that were eating his family's livestock away. The lions are always causing trouble in Kenya, but his contraption scares them away. It flashes during the night and the lions are scared of the moving lights. He figured out how to make a solar powered flashing light out of a car battery and some circuits and other things. Then because of this his invention is being used around Kenya and he was invited in to one of the best schools in Kenya. What do you think about him and his invention?
