Magic does not play a direct role in "The Boy Who Harnessed the Wind." The story focuses on William Kamkwamba, a young Malawian inventor who builds a wind turbine to bring electricity to his village. The theme revolves around perseverance, innovation, and the power of human ingenuity rather than magic.

The bomb dropped on Hiroshima, Japan, in 1945, known as "Little Boy," used uranium-235, while the bomb dropped on Nagasaki, known as "Fat Man," used plutonium-239. These bombs caused immense destruction and casualties, leading to the end of World War II.
In "The Boy Who Harnessed the Wind," magic symbolizes hope and a connection to culture for the people of Masitala, who rely on it to explain their circumstances and cope with challenges.

Chigirigiri means monster wagon. William Kamkwamba uses the term in The Boy who Harnessed the Wind.
In "The Boy Who Harnessed the Wind," the villagers blamed William for the famine because they believed his family's decision to build a windmill diverted attention and resources away from traditional farming practices. As the famine worsened, they looked for someone to blame for their suffering, and William’s innovative ideas were seen as a failure in the face of their dire circumstances. The villagers’ frustration was amplified by their desperation, leading them to scapegoat William despite his intentions to help the community.
