As a child growing up in Pakistan, Malala dreamed of having a magic pencil that could change the world around her. She imagined using it to give presents to her family, clear away the nasty smell from the rubbish dump near her home, and even sneak in a little extra sleep on school mornings. But as Malala got older, her wishes became grander—she wished for peace, education for all children, and a better life for everyone. Even though she never found a real magic pencil, Malala discovered that working hard and believing in herself could create real change. This charmingly illustrated picture book shares Malala’s inspiring story, helping young readers see how hope and courage can make even the biggest dreams come true.
