I Am Malala, Young Reader's Edition: How One Girl Stood Up for Education and Changed the World by
4.0
I will be the first to admit that my efforts at understanding of the war in Pakistan and the Taliban does not stretch into such depth further than the death of Bin Laden. It was not until I read this book that I truly discovered how deeply ingrained into Asia this war was. I had no idea who Malala was until I heard about her being shot an airlifted to Birmingham for treatment.
A few weeks ago I watched Emma Watson’s interview with Malala, at which point Emma said:
“The best part of the film for me was that you got to see what, obviously, made you so extraordinary, but more importantly ordinary, which shows that anyone can encourage change.”
I believe that the above quote, though relating to the film He Named Me Malala, encompasses the message of the book. Having not seen the film, I cannot discuss the similarities or differences between them.
