This is my story. Malala Yousafzai was only ten years old when the Taliban took control of her region. They said music was a crime. They said women weren't allowed to go to the market. They said girls couldn't go to school. Raised in a once-peaceful area of Pakistan transformed by terrorism, Malala was taught to stand up for what she believes. So she fought for her right to be educated. And on October 9, 2012, she nearly lost her life for the cause: She was shot point-blank while riding the bus on her way home from school. No one expected her to survive. Now Malala is an international symbol of peaceful protest and the youngest ever Nobel Peace Prize nominee. In this Young Readers Edition of her bestselling memoir, which includes exclusive photos and material, we hear firsthand the remarkable story of a girl who knew from a young age that she wanted to change the world -- and did. Malala's powerful story will open your eyes to another world and will make you believe in hope, truth, miracles and the possibility that one person -- one young person -- can inspire change in her community and beyond.

Dietrich Bonhoeffer had been expecting this day for a long time. He had put his papers in order -- and left a few notes specifically for Hitler's men to see. Two SS agents climbed the stairs and told the boyish-looking Bonhoeffer to come with them. He calmly said good-bye to his parents, put his Bible under his arm, and left. Upstairs there was proof, in his own handwriting, that this quiet young minister was part of a conspiracy to kill Adolf Hitler. This account includes the discovery that Bonhoeffer was one of the first people to provide evidence to the Allies that Jews were being deported to death camps. It takes readers from his privileged early childhood to the studies and travel that would introduce him to peace activists around the world -- eventually putting this gentle, scholarly pacifist on a deadly course to assassinate one of the most ruthless dictators in history.]]></description><link>https://paloalto.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S136C1626012</link><guid isPermaLink="true">https://paloalto.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S136C1626012</guid><category><![CDATA[BK]]></category><category><![CDATA[eng]]></category><dc:creator><![CDATA[McCormick, Patricia]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Sun, 31 Jan 2016 00:00:00 GMT</pubDate><comments>https://paloalto.bibliocommons.com/item/comment/1626012136</comments><format>BK</format><subtitle>Dietrich Bonhoeffer : Pastor, Spy, Unlikely Hero</subtitle><language>eng</language><image_url>https://secure.syndetics.com/index.aspx?isbn=9780062411082/MC.GIF&amp;client=paloaltocity&amp;type=xw12&amp;oclc=</image_url></item><item><title><![CDATA[Sold]]></title><description><![CDATA[Thirteen-year-old Lakshmi leaves her poor mountain home in Nepal thinking that she is to work in the city as a maid only to find that she has been sold into the sex slave trade in India and that there is no hope of escape.]]></description><link>https://paloalto.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S136C1698444</link><guid isPermaLink="true">https://paloalto.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S136C1698444</guid><category><![CDATA[BK]]></category><category><![CDATA[eng]]></category><dc:creator><![CDATA[McCormick, Patricia]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Thu, 31 Jan 2008 00:00:00 GMT</pubDate><comments>https://paloalto.bibliocommons.com/item/comment/1698444136</comments><format>BK</format><subtitle></subtitle><language>eng</language><image_url>https://secure.syndetics.com/index.aspx?isbn=9780786851720/MC.GIF&amp;client=paloaltocity&amp;type=xw12&amp;oclc=</image_url></item></channel></rss>
