Malala Yousafaziai is a universal hero that every human being needs to learn about. Langston-George did an incredible job of telling Malala's story in a way that is appropriate for children. What Malala did for education is a story that is truly unbelievable. Her bravery is difficult to comprehend for anyone! M students were truly amazed by this biography.

For the Right to Learn: Malala Yousafzai's Story written by Rebecca Langston-George and illustrated by Janna Bock is a fantastic account of the heroic stance Malala Yousafzai made for her right to an education. I have read "I am Malala" and this version of her story for children hits the nail on the head. Malala was a girl who wanted to go to school and felt no one had the right to deny her an education. Throughout her school days she lived in fear right up until she was shot in the head, and still did not give up on her right to learn. She is a hero who will not back down. This story shares the facts without a lot of the political dealings which children would probably not understand and would probably cause them to lose interest in this story. An excellent way to introduce thought-provoking issues of education, women's rights, discrimination and the simple ability to learn.
Challenge your children/students: What would they do if they weren't allowed to go to school? Excellent illustrations go with the text to give you a better understanding of the story.

Thank you Netgalley and Capstone Press for the opportunity to read and review this book.

This book is about Malala Yousafazi's journey to help give women the right to be educated in her home country and how the Taliban attempts to stop her.
