Malala's magic pencil by Malala Yousafzal
** Shortlisted for the Little Rebels Children's Book Award! **
As a child in Pakistan, Malala made a wish for a magic pencil that she could
use to redraw reality. She would use it to give gifts to her family, to erase the
smell from the rubbish dump near her house, to sleep an extra hour in the
morning. As she grew older, Malala wished for bigger and bigger things. She
saw a world that needed fixing. And even if she never found a magic pencil,
Malala realized that she could still work hard every day to make her wishes
come true.
This beautifully illustrated picture book tells Malala's story, in her own words, for
a younger audience and shows them the worldview that allowed her to hold on to
hope and to make her voice heard even in the most difficult of times.
