As a girl, education activist Malala Yousafzai enjoyed watching a TV show about a magic pencil. In child-friendly text, she describes how she would use a magic pencil to change the world. Facing reality, Malala began to focus on what she loved most--school and speaking out against oppression. The ink and watercolor illustrations use pastel shades and earth tones to show details of young Malala's culture.
