For the Right to Learn Malala Yousafazai's Story by Rebecca Langston-George illustrated by Janna Bock*

This book captivated my boys and me.
Malala, the youngest winner of the Nobel Peace Prize, continued to attend school even when the Taliban threatened her life and eventually shot her.  She has survived and perseveres in her belief that all children have the right to learn.
Warning/Point to discuss: This book does not shy away from the violence so prevalent in Pakistan and the Middle East so proceed with caution as you read this book with younger children.  It shares how Malala was shot and how the Taliban wants her dead.
*Highly recommend.
Strategies: synthesizing, asking questions
