Malala: A Hero for All (Step into Reading)

Description

This Step 4 Biography Reader shares the inspiring story of Malala Yousafzai,
the youngest recipient of the Nobel Peace Prize. Even as a young girl in
Pakistan, Malala spoke up about the importance of girls’ education, via
speeches and a blog. Since the Taliban regime was intent on denying girls an
education and silencing anyone who disagreed with their laws, this was very
dangerous. Malala was shot, but she survived the attack and it did not silence
her. In fact, she spoke at the United Nations on her sixteenth birthday, just
nine months after she was shot. Malala’s resolve has only magnified her voice,
delivering her message of human rights to millions of people. Step 4 Readers
use challenging vocabulary and short paragraphs to tell exciting stories. For
newly independent readers who read simple sentences with confidence. Read more
