Malala Speaks Out<\/em>
\nSpeech by Malala Yousafzai, Translation by Susan Ouriou, Commentary by Clara Fons Duocastella, Illustrations by Yael Frankel
\n@ Amazon<\/a> | Bookshop<\/a><\/em><\/p>\n

Booktalk:<\/strong> When Malala was fifteen years old, she was attacked by the Taliban for defending girls\u2019 rights to education. She survived and recovered to become a world leader in education rights. In 2014, at the age of seventeen, she was the youngest person to be awarded the Nobel Peace Prize. This is her acceptance speech, in which Malala tells her story — the story of 66 million girls around the world deprived of education. <\/p>\n

Snippet:<\/strong> We could not just stand by and see those injustices of the terrorists denying our rights, ruthlessly killing people and misusing the name of Islam. We decided to raise our voice and tell them: have you not learnt, have you not learnt that in the Holy Qur’an Allah says, “If you kill one person it is as if you kill all of humanity”?<\/p>\n
