Books Descriptions
For over twenty years, Ziauddin Yousafsai has been fighting for equality ?
first for Malala, his daughter ? and then for all girls throughout the world
living in patriarchal societies. Taught as a young boy in Pakistan to believe
that he was inherently better than his sisters, Ziauddin rebelled against
inequality at a young age. And when he had a daughter himself he vowed
that Malala would have an education, something usually only given to boys,
and he founded a school that Malala could attend.Then in 2012, Malala was
shot for standing up to the Taliban by continuing to go to her father's
school, and Ziauddin almost lost the very person for whom his fight for
equality began.Let Her Fly is Ziauddin?s journey from a stammering boy
growing up in a tiny village high in the mountains of Pakistan, through to
being an activist for equality and the father of the youngest ever
recipient of the Nobel Peace Prize, and now one of the most influential and
inspiring young women on the planet.Told
