I Am Malala: How One Girl Stood Up for Education and Changed the World
(Young Readers Edition) by Malala Yousafzai

The Taliban took over Malala’s region in Pakistan when she was ten and said that girls shouldn’t attend school. Malala and other girls in her father’s school were eager to learn. This memoir (adapted from the adult bestseller) tells how Malala became an international spokesperson for girls’ rights to an education, and eventually, was shot for those beliefs on her way home from school. This is a powerful story of the youngest ever Nobel Peace Prize winner. Recommended for age 10+
