Review: I love the illustrations and simple story telling. I want my children to hear and understand stories and life experiences such as those of Malala and Iqbal but I still found the retelling disturbing and will have to keep the full content for children much older than mine. I edit out some of the extremes when I read them to my small children but the pictures are so good and the context so compelling that they are worth reading even with a motherly edit. They provide a good context to speak about Pakistan and other contexts that I want my children learning about that few other children's books do. I'm pretty sure I heard of this on a list of childrens' stories to change the world. Its great to get two stories in one. I also have Jeanette Winter's telling of Wangari Mathai's story of replanting a greenbelt of trees in Kenya and being the first African woman to win the Nobel Peace prize, Wangari's Trees of Peace - https://www.amazon.com/Wangaris-Trees-Peace-Story-Africa/dp/0152065458.
