The Wind at Work : An Activity Guide to Windmills

The Wind at Work traces the history of windmills and how their design and function have changed over time.

It includes more than a dozen wind-related activities such as conducting science experiments, cooking a traditional windmiller meal, sewing windmill patterns, and keeping track of household energy use.

Information on how wind turbines (modern windmills) can produce energy as an alternative to nonrenewable fossil fuels is covered as well.
