I Am Malala by Malala Yousafzai & Christina Lamb

I Am Malala is the extraordinary memoir of Malala Yousafzai, the Pakistani girl who stood up to the Taliban and changed the world. Co-written with award-winning journalist Christina Lamb, this compelling biography tells the story of a fearless young girl who defied extremism and became an international symbol of peaceful resistance.

When the Taliban took control of the Swat Valley, few dared to speak out. Malala did. Despite the dangers, she campaigned for girls’ education and refused to be silenced. In 2012, she was shot in the head for speaking out—but survived, and her voice grew even louder. I Am Malala chronicles her life before and after the attack, offering a deeply personal look into a world torn by political conflict, cultural expectations, and unwavering courage.

This edition, published by Weidenfeld & Nicolson London, captures Malala’s powerful message: that one child, one teacher, one book, and one pen can change the world. The book highlights not only her personal journey but also the broader struggle for human rights, education, and peace.

Perfect for readers of all ages who are inspired by real-life heroes, I Am Malala is a testament to the strength of young women and the power of a single voice. It’s a must-read for students, educators, and anyone passionate about social justice.
