Told through the eyes of Malala, she tells us a little of the history of Pakistan, Islam, and herself. I liked that she gave us the information of how Pakistan came into existence. I also liked how she said Islam was like and compared it to what the Taliban was doing. I enjoyed the cultural story an...
It is a miracle that Malala is alive to tell her tale. She shares her story, from growing up in Pakistan, living through the Taliban, and her life now in England.Talk about a reality check. This book really helped me to realize how much I take for granted in America. I can't imagine living in a w...

Her history of activism for women's rights and girl's education made her a target for the Taliban, a terrorist group made up largely of her own Pa...
Review to come eventually.If you haven't read this book yet, read it NOW. I don't give a full 5-stars for many books, but this young lady's story is amazing and well worth reading.
