Description
Every Day is Malala Day by Rosemary A. McCarney is a powerful letter to Malala Yousafzai from girls around the world, expressing their sympathy, sisterhood and admiration for her courage in standing up for girls' education. These girls know the barriers that stand in the way of a girl going to school - poverty, early marriage, discrimination or violence. Yet they see in Malala a leader and a friend who has become an international icon for girls' rights. This book is a celebration of Malala Day, July 12th, recognized by the UN as a day to commemorate her birthday. A portion of the proceeds from this book will support Plan's Because I am a Girl campaign, highlighting the importance of education and equality for all girls worldwide.
