A great addition to the Little People, Big Dreams collection of stories. 

This book tells the story of Malala Yousafzai in an age appropriate, digestible way that is easy for children to access without being overwhelming. 

The beautiful illustrations add to the beauty of the story.

The story of Malala and her inspiring bravery is the perfect addition to the Little People, Big Dreams series. The description of what happened to Malala and the regime she lived under is pitched perfectly for children. The illustrations are stunning as usual. This is a must-have for any child’s bookshelf and fans of the series already will love this addition.

I absolutely adore the Little People, Big Dreams series and this book, focusing on Malala Yousafzai did not disappoint. Filled with glorious illustrations, these texts are a fabulous springboard for classroom discussion. I love how they cover such a broad range of famous faces, from scientists to musicians.

The story of Malala Yousafzai is an inspiring and humbling read. It follows the Nobel Peace Prize winner in her fight for the right for education for girls, from her childhood in Pakistan to her work on the global stage. It shows the power of one voice and how Malala refused to let fear and terror silence her. It is an empowering and emotive story, told beautifully for readers of all ages. The illustrations feel Arabic in style, due to colours and patterns and so match the story perfectly. 

I will be using this book as part of my Person of the Week work in a Year 5 classroom and think it would be a welcome addition to any school bookshelf.  The messages about women’s rights, the value of education and the power of one voice should be shared with all young readers. Thank you to NetGalley for the ARC.

Another great addition to the Little People, BIG DREAMS collection. 

This is a concise biography of Malala Yousafzai, an inspiring young woman who stood up to the Taliban after they tried to take away her right to an education. A  reminder that you can be a catalyst for change at any age and that girls in the western world should appreciate their education and use it to fight for children who don't have the same rights as them. 

These biographies are age appropriate; inspiring and interesting, but not overwhelming. They have bright, beautiful illustrations, striking covers, and look great on a shelf together.

Thank you to Quatro Publishing Group and #NetGalley for an advanced copy.

A crucial story about the importance of standing up for whats right no matter what and continuing to do the same for others no matter what

Perhaps no-one deserves a place in this series more than Malala who championed education for girls as an equal right amid political uncertainty.
While most books reflect on the life of someone who found fame and achieved great influence as an adult, Malala was still a child when her life was challenged by fear and a serious attack on her and her friends just for going to school.
Suffering severe life threatening injuries from being shot she was brought to the U.K. to receive the best possible care and remain safe.
Already known for campaigning for the rights of women to be educated her subsequent recovery spurred her on to speak out and continue the struggle for others girls lacking opportunities to go to school.

Sometimes these books seem bigger than the celebrity they depict but I feel no publication could overshadow the girl at the heart of this story. Her spirit and determination transcends the words; her determination to face down fear and intimidation is truly humbling. This isn’t a figure from a history book but a human being sharing this world within my own lifetime.

Her struggle was first shown within BBC news but now her name is probably known worldwide. 

No-one is more a giant among “little people” perhaps  no other person maintained their “big dreams” more than Malala when even a bullet couldn’t silence her.

I respect her greatly. Where others would have caved to the nightmares in her world and walked a safer path Malala was not afraid to share a dream of a human right to education. Even after her own degree education was achieved she continues to redress a male centred politic and promote education for all children.

As a child centred book this is an excellent example of what is so good about this series of books that it is a pleasure and a duty to share with the next generation.

I absolutely love the books from this series but I think this one, may be my favourite.
This story follows a little girl in Pakistan called Malala, who wanted to learn to read and write, and go to school, and stood up to the Taliban who didn't want her to do so. 
Sadly she was shot and badly injured, and ended up flying to the UK for treatment and no doubt her safety. 
She now fights for the rights of other Pakistani girl's everywhere, who may not get the same rights and education that they should.
Great book.

This is another great book to add to the Little People, Big Dreams collection!

I love this series as they are perfect introductions to young people about some of the most famous and influential people from our past and present and are also a reminder about how these people have also changed our history.  

This book features Malala who is an inspirational young lady.  She went through so much at a young age and came out fighting and even more determined - she is to be commended and the book is a lovely dedication to her for younger children!

5 stars from me for this one, very highly recommended and can't wait for my daughter to get involved in the series and for me this book is a much for any children's library!!
