About this listen
*Young Reader's Edition*
In 2014 Malala become the youngest ever person to be awarded the Nobel Peace Prize
Written in collaboration with critically acclaimed National Book Award finalist Patricia McCormick, Malala tells her story - from her childhood in the Swat Valley to the shooting, her recovery and new life in England. She's a girl who loves cricket, gossips with her best friends, and, on the day of the shooting, nearly overslept and missed an exam. A girl who saw women suddenly banned from public, schools blown up, the Taliban seize control, and her homeland descend into a state of fear and repression.
This is the story of her life, and also of her passionate belief in every child's right to education, her determination to make that a reality throughout the world, and her hope to inspire others.
Read by Neela Vaswani.

A great voice for equal rights to education
I have wanted to read this book for so long and I’m so happy that I have. It is really inspiring to see that someone to young and capricious, especially from a country such as Pakistan, has risen so high above the brutality she endured living under the Taliban regime and their attack on her, to become a global voice for girls’ right to education. Children around the world need to understand that education is not to be taken for granted, and leaders and their people need to protect that right. Keeping girls and women in the house and out of schools is universally unacceptable regardless of religion, gender, creed, sexuality or ethnicity. This is a great book which illustrates and highlights this human right. Malala is honest, smart, kind-hearted and even funny in her storytelling style and while some of it was really hard to hear, her story has touched me.
