I Am Malala is the memoir of a remarkable teenage girl who risked her life for the right to go to school.

Raised in a changing Pakistan by an enlightened father from a poor background and a beautiful, illiterate mother from a political family, Malala was taught to stand up for what she believes. I Am Malala tells her story of bravery and determination in the face of extremism, detailing the daily challenges of growing up in a world transformed by terror.

Written for her peers with acclaimed author Patricia McCormick, this important book is about the value of speaking out against intolerance and hate. It's a message of hope from one girl who dreams of education for every girl in every country.

“Ms. Yousafzai has single-handedly turned the issue of the right of girls—and all children—to be educated into headline news. And she is a figure worth hearing.” —Financial Times (London)
“A riveting memoir…this is a book that should be read not only for its vivid drama but for its urgent message about the untapped power of girls.” —Washington Post
“A searing and personal portrait of a young woman who dared to make a difference.” —Publishers Weekly (starred review)
