Malala Yousafzai refused to be silenced and fought for her right to an education. In October 2012, when she was fifteen, Malala almost paid the ultimate price She was shot in the head while riding the bus home from school, and few expected her to survive. Instead, Malala's miraciden 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 became a global symbol of peaceful protest and the youngest nominee ever for the Nobel Peace Prize. Hailed by the Associated Press for its "arresting detail," b Malala will make readers believe in the power of one penson voice to inspire change in the world.
