I Am Malala: The Girl Who Stood Up for Education and Changed the World by Malala Yousafzai

5.0

I LOVED this book. I read the young reader version, so I am sure there are some stories that were glossed over. That being said, I still adored this book and can not believe how strong this young lady is! I have seen interviews with her before and I knew she had a very supportive father. What I did not realize was HOW supportive and uplifting he was/is. This is a man who despite social norms, wanted his daughter and all the other girls to have a chance at an education. He went above and beyond to give everyone a chance and to raise them up. I read this book to learn more about Malala and ended up falling in love with her family. Her mother grew so much throughout this story too. A constant support for her family and then as an adult getting an education herself. So beautiful... I highly recommend this book (or the adult version!).
