During stage 3, in the beginning, Mirabella’s failing is starting to become quite noticed by the nuns, and the nuns know that, “something must be done.” (pg. 245) Claudette knew that something was going to happen to Mirabella, but didn’t bother to warn her, as Mirabella’s health began to decline, as shown on page 245, and Mirabella was an overall nuisance to the pack. During stage 3, the pack met their first purebred girls, who were volunteer fourth grade girls from St. Lucy’s School for Girls. The purebred girls played checkers with them, and were quite passive when the pack would tear up the checkers board. They even purposely made mistakes in the game to give the girls advantage! Jeanette learned how to dance, and had even mastered a basic form of a dance called the Charleston. The girls, after learning how to ride a bike, would take rides into town, accompanied by the nuns. Mirabella chased after them, and the girls would pedal faster away from her. Around then, they had all had 6 weeks of lessons, but no one could do the Sausalito but Jeanette. The nuns had given announcement of a Debutante Ball, and this angered Claudette, as she felt the pack wasn’t ready to see the…
While on her journey to receive education rights for all people, she and her dad were threatened every day. She wasn’t afraid, and she knew that her family would do their best to keep her as safe as possible. She was probably scared at first, but she went on to conquer her fears and overcame her fear of the threats thrown at her. “What terrifies religious extremists like the Taliban are not American tanks or bombs or bullets, it’s a girl with a book” (p. 14). This quote shows her insuppressible amount of courage, more than most people have. She continued to be courageous and have hope for the future, knowing that whatever is bound to happen, will happen. Even after being shot, Malala showed great amounts of courage. She wasn’t afraid, and she even said, “They thought that the bullets would silence us” (p. 13). Malala kept her head held high, and showed no fear, for if she did, she may have gotten herself killed. “I wasn’t scared, but I had started making sure the gate was locked at night and asking God what happens when you die” (p. 14). She said it herself, she wasn’t scared; hence, the amount of courage it took to say that was…

The Taliban came into her village, took it over and decided that they didn’t want girls going to school and getting their education anymore. So, Malala decided to speak up for girl’s education making it aware of what the Taliban was doing. After she started speaking to local magazines and journals, Malala began to get worldwide attention and so did the Taliban. However, the negative attention the Taliban was getting made Malala number one on their target list. When she was fifteen years old, she was on her school bus with other young school girls when two men affiliated with the Taliban jumped aboard the bus looking for Malala. After they realized the identity of Malala, one man raised a Colt 45 to her head and fired three shots. One of the three shots went through her left eye socket and came out under her left shoulder.

She required multiple surgeries to repair a facial nerve which caused the left side of her face to be paralyzed. In her newly released book, I am Malala: The Girl Who Stood Up for…
