Malala stood up for education and her reward was getting shot by the Taliban! This courageous girl from Swat, loved school and felt she and all the girls of her country, and the whole world, had the right to an education. She was outspoken and never tired of speaking out on this subject.
She almost paid for it with her life but some timely intervention by several hospitals saved her. Alas! as her father remarked she lost her pretty smile, "They have snatched her Smile, " he cried! Today she is 17. On her sixteenth birthday she stood up at the United Nations and received a standing ovation for her speech. A powerful book. A well-deserved Nobel Prize rewarded this brave young girl.
