Being Brave

Reading the book, I  Am Malala,  is teaching that bravery is an important part of life, because it saves people with changes or challenges people face. Malala was being brave when the Taliban warned her that she could not attend school, but, she did anyway in the text it says, “ The future of our country can never be bright if we don’t educate the young generation.” Malala had to stand up by going to school, because if the Taliban see her going,  they will do something terrible  to her.

In Pakistan, Malala inspired kids to be courageous against the Taliban. Malala also made speeches to kids about bullying and other problems. She even was at risk when she didn’t go outside without a burqa . Also, Malala wasn’t the only one who had to be face challenges in the book, it was also her father. He was being heroic when he went and risk himself by protesting against the Taliban. The girls in Malala’s school were being firm, when, they went to school secretly when the Taliban said they could not.  Malala’s mother was being confident when she walked into a store without wearing the proper burqa, even though, she can’t afford the burqas that cover all of her skin. If they also look at her without wearing the proper burqa again, they will do something bad to her ,because the text says “  They should only in emergencies and only wearing a burqa and only with a male relative. “ Just when the Taliban came they started bombing really close to Malala’s house, because in the text it stated “ One night when a blast hit especially close to our house,  I went to my father’s side.” If that happens to the United States  that is really scary because you can see it , but Malala didn’t panic or scream or wanting to escape, instead Malala decided to be brave.

Reading “ I Am Malala” is teaching a lot  of life lessons. Her Dad, her Mom, and  the girls who attended school when they weren’t suppose to also taught life lessons. If  we were in that situation we would not know what to do. But Malala did she made speeches encouraging kids to be brave whatever the problem is. Malala is educating people to always be courageous in any situation. Finally, bravery is an important part of life when you face challenges or face a really big change in people’s life.
