295 Words2 Pages

This book reminds me the film called “I am Malala: the Girl who Stood Up for Education and was shot by the Taliban”. Malala Yousafzai is a 17 years old girl. She is Pakistani school pupil and education activist living in Pakistan. She also has a hard life in Pakistan because during the period, the Taliban’s military hold on the area intensified. What makes the film real is its reference to the real Islamic political organization Taliban that was organized in 1994 and armed in South Afghanistan. In the book, it is said that Taliban military started to control Parvana's hometown. They are killing anybody who protects or helps the Soviets. Actually, the Taliban really control Malala's hometown and do not allow girls to go to school!

    Dear Malala Yousafzai and Patricia McCormick, I loved your novel, it taught me to believe in myself and be more confident in what I believe in.
