Synopsis

As a young girl in Pakistan, Malala dreams of a magic pencil to improve her world—giving gifts to her family, erasing the rubbish dump's smell, and gaining extra sleep. As she matures, her wishes grow, aiming to fix larger societal issues. Realising she doesn't need magic to enact change, Malala uses her voice and actions to advocate for education and equality. This beautifully illustrated picture book shares Malala's inspiring journey, encouraging young readers to believe in their power to make a difference.
