內容簡介
內容簡介 我不覺得難過,我不覺得害怕。我只是在想:我的長相並不重要。我還活著,我應當心存感激。 我瞄了一眼費歐娜醫師。她把一盒面紙放在我倆的中間,我這才理解到她以為我會因此流淚。也許原本的馬拉拉會哭。但當你差點失去性命,鏡中那張逗趣的臉則成了你還活在這世上的直接證據。 「我只是比較幸運,擁有一對縱使心中充滿恐懼,仍然鼓勵我永遠直前的父母。」——馬拉拉 今年十七歲的馬拉拉成了為全球兒童爭取受教權的象徵,甚至連續兩年是諾貝爾和平獎創設以來最年輕的候選人。她的父母是如何培育出這樣與眾不同的女兒?她又是如何積極地想要改變這世界? 「我父親跟我都是浪漫主義者。『世事一定會變得更好。』我們經常這麼說。我母親是我們的基石。當我們的頭探向天際,她的雙腳則穩踏大地。」——馬拉拉 Written in collaboration with critically acclaimed National Book Award finalist Patty McCormick, this is Malala's story, written for her peers.Meet the girl behind the icon - a girl who loves cricket, has spats with her best friend, and, on the day of the shooting, nearly overslept and missed an exam. A girl who saw women suddenly banned from public, schools blown up, and Taliban opponents whipped in public. A girl whose homeland descended into a state of fear and repression, and who found herself transformed from being somewhat shy and bookish into a fearless opponent of a murderous regime.This is the story of her passionate belief in every child's right to education, her determination to make that a reality throughout the world, and her hope to inspire other children around the world to stand up for their rights alongside her.Includes brand new material about Malala's life after the shooting - adapting to life in a strange country, rehabilitation, and her thoughts on the continued threats she faces, as well as new photos and illustrations.
