Malala Yousafzai facts

Today I am going to be writing about Malala Yousafzai who at the age of 11 stood up to the Taliban when they banned girls from going to school in Pakistan.

Malala was born on the 12th July, 1997, Pakistan.

Malala Yousafzai was only 11 when the Taliban banned Girls from going to school. She got very annoyed with them and protested, she loved school so much and just wanted an education whatever she had to do.

Malala was on the way to school on the 9th October, 2012 when suddenly Taliban men stopped the bus and one of them asked
  "Who is Malala?" when all of Malala's friends looked at her the Taliban men knew that it was her and they started shooting at her. The bullet hit Malala on the top left bit of her temple above her eyebrow them skimmed down her head and hit her back. Many people would think that she would die but she didn't and she recovered very quickly. Over the next few weeks Malala was moved from her hospital in Pakistan to a hospital in Birmingham, UK.

In 2014 on October 10th Malala was awarded the Nobel peace prize for standing up for young girls education all around the world. Malala is the youngest ever person to receive a Nobel prize!
