Description
Malala's story is one of courage and conviction. Born in the Swat Valley in Pakistan, she was taught to stand up for her beliefs and fight for what she believed in. When terrorists took control of her region and banned girls from attending school, Malala refused to give up. Her determination led to a dramatic confrontation on 9 October 2012, when she was shot on her way home from school. This remarkable true story is now told in Malala's own words, offering a first-hand account of her experiences and the events that followed. This edition includes extra material, a Q&A and updated discussion notes, making it a valuable resource for readers who want to learn more about Malala's journey. The book has inspired a film, HE NAMED ME MALALA, which won the BAFTA for Best Documentary. Malala's story is a powerful reminder of the impact one person can have when they stand up for what they believe in. This book is a worthwhile read for anyone interested in learning more about her life and the issues she has faced.
