She has received many peace awards, including the Nobel Peace Prize. The Taliban outlawed education in Pakistan, where she lived, for all females in 2009.

I Am Malala is a memoir by Malala Yousafzai that chronicles her experiences in standing up for education in Pakistan. Malala spent her childhood advocating for girls’ rights both in and out of the school system. Her distinguished father, Ziauddin, encouraged her to take a stand and continue to attend school, even when the Taliban decreed that girls were forbidden from getting an education. Malala writes, “My father used to say the people of Swat and the teachers would continue to educate our children until the last room, the last teacher and the last student was alive. My parents never once suggested I should withdraw from school, ever. Though we loved school, we hadn’t realized how important education was until the Taliban tried to stop us” (146). On Tuesday, October 9, 2012, Malala was traveling home from school when a Talib boarded her bus and asked, “Who is Malala” (9)? The man shot Malala in the head. After a miraculous recovery, Malala continued to fight for education for girls around the world. By standing up for women’s rights in Pakistan, Malala inspires others to do the same in their communities.
No rights for education, no rights to do what they want and many other things. Most part of the women didn't fight for their rights, but Malala was different she wanted to study. So she was fighting to have an education. However the talibans (Islamic Group) who are against rights for females didn't like it so they did something really bad... The amazing style of writing of this young woman and the powerful plot is the reason why I extremely recommend this book for readers who like to experience many different feelings.
