“One child, one teacher, one book, one pen can change the world.” said by Malala Yousafazi. Who is Malala? She used to be an ordinary Pakistan girl. She is the youngest Nobel Laureate in the world. She is known for her outspoken advocacy of woman’s rights, especially the right of education for woman. I Am Malala is the autobiography of Malala Yousafzai that written by herself with the war correspondent Christina Lamb. The life of Malala shows us that once you established your dream, no matter how far it is and no matter how hard it is, just keep pursuing it, do not give up.

Malala started writing journals for the BBC website since she was eleven. She wrote the tough life about the people who lived under the govern of the Taliban. She insisted to voice out for the basic rights for the girls and fight for the education right for the girls all the world. It was a tragedy when she got shot on her way home by the gunman that assigned by the Taliban. The bullet went through her left eye and stuck in her shoulder. Her life was on the stake. Luckily, she received the help from the society and whisked away to the hospital in England. She was cured and thrived again, and she never stepped back. Instead, she confidently and bravely shared this soul-stirring experience to the world and continued fighting for her dream.

One important thing that I understood after reading the book was “follow your heart, pursue your dream.”  Malala grew up in an environment that valued the importance of education. She was greatly influenced by her father Ziauddin Yousafzai, who was enthusiastic about education and learning. She inherited the unwavering sense of justice from him. Her dream was that “Peace in every home, every street, every village, every country”. She wants education for every boy and every girl in the world. In the book she wrote that "To sit down on a chair and read my books with all my friends at school is my right. To see each and every human being with a smile of happiness is my wish.” Although the Taliban prohibited the education for girls at Swat, the hometown of Malala, she continued her school and education. Moreover, she had an anonymous blog on BBC website that displayed the unfair and injustice life of the people under the rule of Taliban. She also reached to many impactive medias to call on for the feminine right and disclose the Taliban’s atrocity. Truely, life is not only about taking in oxygen and giving out carbon dioxide. You need to use your action and dream to colour your life.
