Malala Yousafzai: Warrior with Words

Growing up in Pakistan’s Swat Valley, Malala Yousafzai loves books and school. In 2009, the Taliban comes to power and closes schools for girls. At eleven, Malala begins speaking and writing online about every child’s right to an education. Fighting later forces her family to leave the valley. This account follows her decision to use her voice in support of schooling, with paper-and-fabric collage illustrations and back matter. It also notes that the book is available in Spanish.
