“Now my voice is louder than ever.“

This book is a cute and relatable read for young children.

This book was written by Malala Yousafzai herself and is the story about her as a young girl who wanted a magic pen to solve all of her problems.

I think it is a good read.

“My voice became so powerful that the dangerous men tried to silence me“

This story has beautiful illustrations that are very welcoming and light. It brings a dark story some beauty. Also, in some areas, there is a lot of writing and in some others, there is very minimal text. This would be a good read aloud book, or buddy reading!

Malala Yousafzai. This is an autobiography. She writes her life story in third person. It has a lot of information on her situation without going super in depth and getting really morbid. It is an important and inspiring story, so now that it is a picture book, there is more of an audience t hear the story.

Nobel Peace Prize winner Malala Yousafazai tells a story inspired by her own childhood. This nonfiction picture book tells the story of Malala living in Pakistan making a wish for a magic pencil.

We just read Speak Up, She Persisted, Malala's Magic Pencil and The World Needs More Purple People that my kids absolutely loved.

Malala's Magic Pencil is excellent B book .It was written by Malala Yousafza and illustrated by Marie Pommepuy and Sébastien Cosset ; and was awarded the Nobel Peace Prize.This is excellent book that can be RA for students in the 1st grade or higher.

Malala‘s Magic Pencil is a Jane Addams awarded book and B written by Malala Yousafzai. It tells the tale and struggle of a young girl named Malala. She has big dreams and aspirations she hopes to fulfill through magic, but realizes that to make them come true she must use the power of her education and voice to be seen, heard, and move the world. A RA works well for sharing this tale with readers.

#BloomingBibliophiles Day 15: Writing home & writing #peace in a magic pencil is the central theme in this picturebook bio of Malala. Over & above the empowering message, I was also moved by the sense of place that was accomplished through Kerascoët‘s art. The pile of rubble, gouged-out buildings, laundry hanging on strings behind walled fences-the sense of home can be smelled, tasted, felt through the pages. My review: https://wp.me/pDlzr-gJ7

This book by Malala Yousafzai won a Jane Austen award for inspiring young women. It is a F book that I would use for a RA or a PR. This lesson plan https://www.worldbookday.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/01/Primary-Teaching-Ideas-M... is comprehensive and amazing for many grades. #ucflae3414f19

This is a B picture book by Malala Yousafzai and illustrated by Kerascoët. It is about how, when she was younger, she wished for a magic pencil to solve her problems.

She traded in her magic pencil for a real one and started writing and sharing her story for others to stand behind her and fight for women‘s education. #ucflae3414f19

This B by Malala Yousafzai is a beautiful and eye opening retelling of her life. She recalls her hopes and wishes and how she created the magic she had once wished for. The story follows as she brings hope to people around the world. I adore the quote in the book “One child, one teacher, one book and one pen can change the world.” It would make a great AS or RA. #UCFLAE3414SU19

My almost third grader and I listened to this one together. We‘ve read picture books about Malala Yousafzai, but this short chapter book was a more in-depth look at this amazing young woman and her fight for girls‘ rights.

Biography. This is a wonderful book for young children that introduces them to an amazing you g woman who fought and continues to fight for what is right.

Malala‘s Magic Pencil by Malala Yousafzai and illustrated by Kerascoët, 2017. This is a wonderfully told and beautifully illustrated story of the life of Malala Yousafzai as told by Malala herself. One of the strongest and most influential figures of our time has turned her life into a wonderful children‘s book.

“One child, one teacher, one book, and one pen can change the world” ❣️ Malala‘s Magic Pencil is a heartwarming B story written by Malala herself. When Malala was a girl she wished for a magic pencil. At first she wanted one to erase the smell of garbage in her city and to sleep an extra hour in the morning. But as she got older and she noticed that girls in her country weren‘t allowed to go to school anymore, she picked up a real pen and made

Dreams can come true. Hold on to it and make it happen... ❤️

Pretty sure this was Parker‘s 3rd #littlefeministbookclub book. #littlefeminist #malala #malalayousafzai #malalasmagicpencil #diverselibrary #childrensbooks #diversechildrenslibrary

What a great #childrensbook! I love the positive message and it‘s a great book about the power of education and having a voice.

Malala‘s Magic Pencil is a New York Times Best Seller, and a picture book autobiography. Malala tells her story in a narrative designed for children, while encouraging them to find their magic. I think that it would be interesting to look at Malala Yousafzai for an author study. She has only written this one book for children so it would be quite a contrast to other authors. #ucflae3414sp18

#AprilBookishMadness #ChildProtagonist

Read this book while I toured the United Nations building, in NYC, back in December.

5⭐️ simple yet beautiful

There are so many wonderful picture book biographies out there for kids now, I decided to highlight them in a display for women's history month. I included some photos and a list of names to see if kids – or parents – could match 'em up.

#UnitedNations #NYC

Read this book while I waited for my U.N. tour, in the U.N. Bookstore!!! 📚

So cool & pretty! #endpapers

Magic is everywhere in the world--in knowledge, beauty, love, peace. The magic is in you, in your words, in your voice.

“...because where I came from, many girls weren‘t allowed to become what they dreamed of.”

Every bit as good as you would expect.

Malala tells her story of fighting for the right to education. This version for the youngest readers alludes to the violence of her attack but doesn't make it too scary. The illustrations depict her community realistically but there are dreamy drawing overlays in gold as she imagines change. #mommyreads #picturebooks #biography #justice #education

Leitura super importante! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

A beautiful book and an important story. This would make a perfect gift!

This B book shares a wonderful story of Malala Yousafzal‘s life growing up in a war torn world. The book won a Nobel Peace Prize and was a New York Times best seller. This story of hope would be great for a AS or RA. UDL 3.1 can be used with this story to supply background knowledge on Malala‘s life and war.

Woot! This came in the mail today, just in time for us to read tonight!!

This is the first time I've heard about this! I have her autobiography on Audible, but I haven't listened to it yet. I think it may be next on my list. 💗
