    When on her way to school in Pakistan in 2012, 15-year-old Malala Yousafzai was shot in the head by the Taliban. Surviving her injuries and now living in England, Malala has become an emissary for peace, promoting the rights of girls and women worldwide. McCarney—who heads Plan International Canada, part of a global nonprofit charity that seeks to abolish poverty—assembles a communal letter adapted from actual letters written to Malala from girls around the world. The letter acts as a message of solidarity from girls who have experienced persecution for being female. Large photographs, both sober and joyful, show girls in communities in Brazil, China, India, and other countries. One girl dressed in a wedding gown stares impassively at readers while, opposite, a Filipino child stands alone on a street ("In many countries bullets are not the only way to silence girls. Early marriage... poverty... discrimination... violence... all play a part"). A transcript of Malala's 2013 speech before the United Nations' Youth Assembly, delivered on her 16th birthday, provides a rousing conclusion to this arresting tribute to bravery and determination. Ages 5–9. (May)

    Gr 2–4—This picture gallery from the president of Plan Canada, an organization whose mission is to improve the quality of life for children in developing countries, opens with a photo and brief introduction to Malala Yousafzai, the Pakistani student who was shot for her outspoken support of girls' education. Each page features an evocative, captioned image, such as a barefoot child bride in wedding finery and a single girl, dressed in pink, surrounded by glaring boys in blue. Addressed to Malala, the simple text reads like an admiring letter to this articulate and inspiring spokesperson for social justice. Though readers may come away assuming that the subjects in the photographs actually spoke these words, the "Acknowledgements" page clarifies that, in fact, Plan Canada produced a film depicting girls from all over the world writing to Malala; images from Plan's own collection were chosen to illustrate the girls' words. Back matter includes photo credits, author acknowledgements, and excerpts from Malala's July 2013 speech to the United Nations, which ended with the words, "One child, one teacher, one pen and one book can change the world." An effective introduction to an important social justice issue.—Toby Rajput, National Louis University, Skokie, IL

    An uplifting letter of tribute to Malala Yousafzai, the Pakistani teenager made famous by her determined advocacy for girls' education, illustrated with photos of her and other young people from around the world. McCarney addresses Yousafzai—who survived a shooting in 2012 and has become a vocal advocate for children's rights—directly. She praises her courage, describes her experience and tallies many of the social and economic obstacles that "silence girls," from poverty and discrimination to physical violence and forced early marriage. Strong personal and collective statements of solidarity ("Instead of living in fear… / …we must shout for change") encourage readers to join Yousafzai. The author closes by quoting parts of the young Nobel Peace Prize nominee's eloquent speech before the United Nations' Youth Assembly on the right of children to receive an education. The missive captions a series of full-page photographs, mostly of girls in developing nations posing pensively or, more often, smiling and waving enthusiastically. Proceeds will be donated to a fund sponsored by Plan International, an international nonprofit devoted to children's rights and welfare. A brief but moving manifesto that will spark both sympathy and heightened awareness of an endemic global outrage. (Informational picture book. 6-8)
