Facts...
She was born 12th July 1997. She lived with her two younger brothers, her parents, and two pet chickens. Malala was born into a Muslim family of Pashtun ethnicity and her first name, meaning "grief stricken". She has always believed in girls' education; she wants to be a doctor. The girls were told not to come to school in uniform one day, so she and her friends all went to school in colourful dresses. But they were told to come in plain clothes, and not dresses. So Malala wrote this in her blog. Malala was returning home from school on the 9th October when gunmen stopped her bus and shot her in the head and the chest. The bullet was removed from her head in Pakistan, and she was flown to the UK for further treatment.
