**Thank you to NetGalley, author Maria Isabel Sanches Vegara, and Quarto Publishing Group – Frances Lincoln Children's Books for the eARC of this book in exchange for my honest review. All opinions are my own.** 

This is a wonderfully informative, kid-friendly book that tells the beginning history of Malala Yousafzai. The writing for this is definitely directed towards young readers, as the more difficult topics (i.e. gun violence and Malala being shot) are kept general while celebrating what she accomplished in more detail. 

The illustrations complement the story beautifully. They are colorful and bright and help bring to life the words on the page. 

I love that this series brings recognition to amazing women in past and recent history written in a way that is understandable and engaging for young readers! I also really enjoy the addition of the timeline and highlighted a quick biography at the end. It can help show young readers that these stories are about real individuals who have done amazing things.
