Cr�ticas:

"A cursory introduction to the Pakistani teenager who earned international attention (and a Nobel Peace Prize nomination) after surviving a Taliban gunman's assassination attempt. Doeden draws largely from Yousafzai's 2013 autobiography and a handful of news reports to craft his account. He explains how she, as the eldest daughter of a dedicated founder of girls schools in Pakistan and co-author (at the age of 11) of a personal blog sponsored by the BBC Urdu, became a public face for Muslim girls' education--and therefore a Taliban target. Silenced only temporarily by a bullet to the head in 2012, she has gone on not only to become an even more vocal advocate for equal (not to say any) education, but to challenge President Barack Obama face to face about the use of military drones in her country. It's a straightforward account geared to those who aren't ready to tackle longer, richer resources. Most of the cramped color photos, and all of the unhelpful pull quotes, serve to fill space more than anything else. A portrait of a courageous and admirable young voice for change--but no substitute for the book that is its major source." --Kirkus Reviews

Rese�a del editor:

Boken skildrar p� l�ttl�st engelska Malala Yousafzais uppv�xt i Pakistan, hur hon 2012 blev skjuten av talibanerna n�r hon var p� v�g hem fr�n skolan. Brottet hon beg�tt? Att st� upp f�r sin och andra barns r�tt till skolg�ng och studier. Efter att hon blev skjuten blev hon f�rflyttad till Storbritannien f�r att f� l�karv�rd. Idag �r det hennes och familjens nya hemland. Malala Yousafzai har blivit en internationell talesperson f�r allas lika r�tt till utbildning och har inspirerat elever och barn runt om i hela v�rlden att st� upp f�r sina r�ttigheter att f� utbilda sig. 2014 fick hon Nobels fredspris f�r vuxna, och strax d�rp� �ven ”barnens fredspris”, eller Worlds childrens prize som det ocks� kallas, f�r sina insatser f�r allas r�tt till utbildning. Boken finns �ven p� svenska: Malala Yousafzai - Ett liv.
