On Tuesday, October 9, 2012, Malala Yousafzai, a 15-year-old Pakistani girl, was shot in the face at point-blank range by the Taliban. Overnight, Malala became a global symbol of peaceful protest and education for all - the youngest person ever to be nominated for the Nobel Peace Prize. Now, she reveals exactly what happened on that fateful day and shares the moving and inspiring story of her determination not be intimidated by extremists. 'I want to tell my story, but it will also be a story of 61 million children who can't get an education. I want it to be part of the campaign to give every boy and girl the right to go to school. It is their basic right.' - Malala Yousafzai.
