The highly anticipated memoir of Malala Yousafzai, the schoolgirl from Pakistan's Swat region who stood up to the Taliban. I come from a country which was created at midnight. When I almost died it was just after midday. When the Taliban took control of the Swat Valley, one girl spoke out. Malala Yousafzai refused to be silenced and fought for her right to an education. On Tuesday 9 October 2012, she almost paid the ultimate price. Shot in the head at point blank range while riding the bus home from school, few expected her to survive. Instead, Malala's miraculous recovery has taken her on an extraordinary journey from a remote valley in Northern Pakistan to the halls of the United Nations in New York. At sixteen, she has become a global symbol of peaceful protest and the youngest ever nominee for the Nobel Peace Prize. I Am Malala is the remarkable tale of a family uprooted by global terrorism, of the fight for girls' education, and of Malala's parents' fierce love for their daughter in a society that prizes sons. It will make you believe in the power of one person's voice to inspire change in the world.

I was looking forward to reading this book and it did not disappoint. Malala Yousafzai did not choose to be a hero in this life, but she definitely became one when she survived an assassination attempt by the Taliban in Pakistan when she was going home from school at age 14. Prior to this event, the Taliban did not target children or teenagers. This is a unique story told by Malala herself about growing up in the Swat Valley of Pakistan, and what life was like there before and after the Taliban arrived. She's gone on to become the youngest person ever to win the Nobel Peace Prize, has graduated from college in the UK, and runs the Malala Fund, a non-profit organization that advocates an education for all children globally. The book includes many photos of herself, her family, and her community in Pakistan and then in the UK.
