Produktbeschreibung
I come from a country which was created at midnight. When I almost died it was just after midday.

When the Taliban took control of the Swat Valley, one girl spoke out. Malala Yousafzai refused to be silenced and fought for her right to an education. On Tuesday 9 October 2012, she almost paid the ultimate price. Shot in the head at point blank range while riding the bus home from school, few expected her to survive.

Instead, Malala's miraculous recovery has taken her on an extraordinary journey from a remote valley in Northern Pakistan to the halls of the United Nations in New York. At sixteen, she has become a global symbol of peaceful protest and the youngest ever nominee for the Nobel Peace Prize. I Am Malala is the remarkable tale of a family uprooted by global terrorism, of the fight for girls' education, and of Malala's parents' fierce love for their daughter in a society that prizes sons. It will make you believe in the power of one person's voice to inspire change in the world.
Autorenporträt
Malala Yousafzai, geboren 1997, wurde von klein auf von ihrem Vater Ziauddin gefördert und dazu ermutigt, sich für die Rechte von Mädchen einzusetzen. Ziauddin Yousafzai leitete selbst eine Schule im pakistanischen Swat-Tal und missachtete damit das Verbot der Taliban. Malala lebt heute mit ihrer Familie in England, wo sie sich von ihren schweren Verletzungen erholt. Seit März 2013 geht sie in Birmingham wieder zur Schule. 2013 wurde sie für ihren "furchtlosen Einsatz gegen Intoleranz und Unterdrückung" mit dem "Sacharow-Preis für Menschenrechte" des Europäischen Parlaments ausgezeichnet, 2014 erhielt sie zusammen mit Kailash Satyarthi den Friedensnobelpreis.
