I Am Malala: The Girl Who Stood Up for Education
I Am Malala: The Girl Who Stood Up for Education and Was Shot by the Taliban When the Taliban took control of Swat Valley, Pakistan, Malala Yousafzai refused to be silenced. On Tuesday, October 9, 2012, when she was fifteen, she was shot in the head at point-blank range while riding the bus home from school, and few expected her to survive. Instead, Malala's miraculous recovery took her on an extraordinary journey from northern Pakistan to the halls of the United Nations in New York. At sixteen, she became a global symbol of peaceful protest and the youngest nominee ever for the Nobel Peace Prize. This book is the remarkable tale of a family uprooted by global terrorism, the fight for girls' education, of a father who championed and encouraged his daughter to write and attend school, and of brave parents who have a fierce love for their daughter in a society that prizes sons.(This book may contain a sharpie mark on the top or bottom edge and may show mild signs of shelfwear.)
