"It's monsoon season in Bangladesh, and that means Iqbal's mother must cook indoors over an open flame, even though the smoke is making her and the family sick. When Iqbal learns about the district science fair, with the theme of sustainability, he is determined to win first prize ... Iqbal is struck with an ingenious idea: for his science fair project, he will build a cook stove that doesn't produce smoke. He researches solar cookers and finds the winning design--one that harnesses the sun's energy and do away with those harmful fumes"-- Provided by publisher.
