Título: Let Her Fly: A Father's Journey
Autor: Ziauddin Yousafzai, Louise Carpenter
Sinopse: Following his daughter, Malala's, miraculous recovery from a bullet fired by the Taliban in 2012 and subsequent rise to fame as a global champion for women's education, Ziauddin Yousafzai had much to be proud of, not only as a father, but also as an activist and educator in his own right. A moving and inspirational story, with a deeply personal look into the Yousafzai family, LET HER FLY traces Yousafzai's journey, from an unconfident stammering little boy living in a mud hut in the mountainous region of Shangla to a man who has broken with tradition and proven there are many faces of feminism. With humor and sincerity, Yousafzai describes his life before the Talibanization of Mingora, his progressive partnership with his wife Toor Pekai, and the challenge of raising children in an unfamiliar country. He also expresses the complex pain of his return, six years later, to the site of Malala's attack. LET HER FLY is an intimate family portrait by the father of one of the most remarkable leaders in the world today. For the first time, readers will learn how an ordinary man from rural Pakistan, who knew only the rigid, patriarchal views of his own community, raised an exceptional young woman who went on to become to the youngest recipient of the Nobel Peace Prize. Ziauddin and Toor Pakai have set a singular example for parents who hope to empower their children to make a difference. LET HER FLY will resonate with anyone who has ever cared for a child, as Ziauddin Yousafzai shares what he's learned from his children, and what he hopes to teach the world.
