Book of the Week: I am Malala

This post brought to you by student blogger Harry. 

I am Malala by Malala Yousazfai 

When Malala was a young girl in Pakistan, she loved going to school in the Swat Valley. It was a school that her father had built. But things quickly changed. The Taliban had been closing down schools for girls because they very much disliked education for girls and women. Malala was trying to stand up for education. When the Taliban found out Malala was doing this, they stopped her school bus and shot her in the head. Luckily she survived and still continues to fight for all girls to have an education. Read the book to find out what happened to Malala during her courageous journey.
