Braving the Bullet

Malala was fearless. In a society where little girls were kept behind closed doors, Malala went to school. When the Taliban came to power and closed all schools for girls in the Swat valley, Malala continued to speak about every child’s right to receive an education. She even braved a bullet, yet carried on tirelessly, fighting for girls’ rights.In 2014, at the age of seventeen, Malala was awarded the Nobel Peace Prize for her efforts.
