I guess there is inspiration just about everywhere it is to you where you choose to find it and stand up for what you believe in. Malala did that. She stood up for what she believed in and was shot by the Taliban. Call it a miracle or a game of fate she survived the shooting. She lived and she tells her story in her book, I am Malala with Christina Lamb.
The book could very well have become sentimental. However, Malala does not let it. She focuses not only her life story but also about what she believes in which is Education for girls and women and how that can change the world. The book is about how to not give up hope and stand in the face of adversity, for what you believe in. I am Malala is not just about one girl it is about one sixteen year old girl who stood up perhaps for everyone else as well, who stood up for her basic right to education.
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.
