Synopsis

A chapter book edition of Nobel Peace Prize winner Malala Yousafzai's bestselling story of courageously standing up for girls' education.
  Malala's powerful memoir of risking her life for the right to go to school is now abridged and adapted for chapter book readers.   Raised in a changing Pakistan by an enlightened father from a poor background and a beautiful, illiterate mother, Malala was taught to stand up for what she believes. Her story of bravery and determination in the face of extremism is more timely than ever.   In this edition, Malala tells her story in clear, accessible language perfect for children who are too old for Malala's Magic Pencil and too young for her middle-grade memoir. Featuring line art and simplified back matter, Malala teaches a new audience the value of speaking out against intolerance and hate: an inspiring message of hope in Malala's own words.

About Malala Yousafzai

Malala Yousafzai is a Nobel Peace Prize-winning author and activist whose courage and voice have inspired millions around the world. Born in Pakistan's Swat Valley, Malala became an international symbol of girls' education after surviving a Taliban attack for speaking out about the right of all children to learn. Her memoir, I Am Malala, co-written with Christina Lamb, tells her extraordinary story of resilience and hope, and remains a global bestseller.

Since then, Malala has continued her mission through the Malala Fund, advocating for education access and equality in communities where girls are often denied schooling. Her later books, including We Are Displaced and Malala's Magic Pencil, expand on her commitment to storytelling as a force for empathy and change. Today, Malala is recognized not only as the youngest recipient of the Nobel Peace Prize but also as a powerful writer whose words illuminate the universal fight for freedom, education, and dignity.

Being a fellow Muslim, I was indeed intrigued and awed by the courage of this young girl who is brave enough to speak up about what is wrong with her country and strive for education to be available for all.

It is refreshing and enlightening to hear a story straight from the source - especially on the topic of life in th......more
