Discover the life of Malala Yousafzai—a story about standing up for education and equal rights
Malala Yousafzai became a brave activist while she was still a young girl. Before she fearlessly fought for girls’ right to education, she was a thoughtful kid who enjoyed school, sports, and daydreaming. Then Malala was told that girls would no longer be able to go to school. She didn’t let that stop her, though! Find out how Malala stood up for equal rights and became the youngest person ever to receive the Nobel Peace Prize.
The Story of Malala Yousafzai includes a visual timeline of Malala’s life and glossary to examine the book’s more advanced words. Find out how Malala changed the world and consider, how will Malala’s courageous spirit inspire you?
“At a time when young readers need to develop independent learning skills, The Story of Malala Yousafzai offers helpful scaffolds for learning such as colorful visuals, a glossary, a quick quiz to test comprehension, and think tank questions to put the reader in Malala’s shoes (‘How would you feel if you couldn’t do what you want just because you’re a boy or a girl?’). This is the most up-to-date biography for children about the Nobel Prize winner, Oxford grad, and activist.” ―Heather McKend, Head of Children’s Services, Saint John Free Public Library
