Book Review: I Am Malala (1)

The story of Malala is one story that I wish to read over and over again. It inspires those who read it to make a difference in the world, no matter their age. The beginning tells the story of a younger Malala. What her life is like and things of that sort. She is a normal girl, until one day a mysterious voice on the radio changes everything. Suddenly she becomes an activist, who stands up for the right to girls education. Then the Taliban attacks. On a bus ride home, her life changes in an instant. She wakes in a hospital, not sure what happened to her. Her left side doesn’t want to work, and she can’t close her left eye. When she learns what happened to her, she is shocked, but not crushed. She keeps doing what she does, standing up for those that don’t have a voice. She says that though the Taliban tried to silence them, they only made it more known. They pretty much caused their own demise.

Malala is a very selfless girl. For example, when she was in the hospital she worried how her family was going to pay for her treatment instead of how hurt she was. She is also very brave. For example, even after the Taliban shot her, she still spoke for those who don’t have a voice. If everyone was a little less selfish and a little more brave, the world would be a better place.

    I love how you explain about what an activist is. I like your exquisite word choices. I like how you ended it too. 🙂
