Summary of I am Malala This story is about a young girl named Malala who decided to fight for girls right to education while this important right was taken away by the Taliban's. Malala's birth was not a big surprise for family because she was not a boy and also the family was really poor, but her father was really happy for her and said “ He looked into my eyes after I was born and fell in love. I know there is something different about this child.” what I think about this quote is that he really entrusted her that she is the only one who can find the answer to her freedom. He inspired his daughter to learn and be independent woman and not be a wife who cooks, cleans, and never leave the house. She said my father is a falcon which means that he is stood up for everybody's education and never gave up even if its hard time dealing with Taliban's. The Taliban's brought a huge disaster to swat and destroying girls schools, books, killing people to not let them study. Malala's village was such a beauty which is like a paradise and brilliant view from the mountains during the winter and in spring. Her village was very languors place and lots of tourists go visit that peaceful valley before the attacks of Taliban. Even when Taliban's warned her for not going to school but she still stood up and went to school unafraid. All malala was afraid of was her books and information she studied in school while they had to leave swat for a short time because of war going on against the army and Taliban. She became an social activist like her father and never gave up on injustices happening towards them. Malala is the girl who stood up for education and was shot by the Taliban.
