A Tale of Heroism and Sacrifice

I recently borrowed this book from the library. It's called

I Am Malala

Some of you may have read it. If so, tell me what you think in the Comments section.

This was a very intriguing autobiography.

Malala Yousafzai spoke out for girls' rights to an education. After the 9/11 attack, the Taliban took control of Swat Valley, where Malala lived. On October 9,2012, She was shot in the head while riding the bus home from school. Miraculously, she recovered and had become a global symbol of peaceful protest and the youngest nominee ever for the Nobel Peace Prize. She has also spoken to the United Nation in New York after her recovery. I Am Malala has a very touching ending," I am Malala. My world has changed but I have not." I am Malala will make you believe in the power of one person's voice to inspire change in the world.


I will apologize for the lack of posts this week. I had my annual standardized tests and was unable to keep up with my blogging. Now, you can look forward(hopefully) to consistent posts on the latest books.

Malala was ranked 6th place
