Malala's Magic Pencil Review: Beautiful - Everything about this book is beautiful, the story, the gold, the story behind the pencil, the representation, its highlight of social issues while providing hope, everything. Written by the young Nobel Peace Prize laureate and Pakistani education activist Malala herself. A must read for children and a must have for school libraries and elementary classrooms. Review: Descriptive Pictures, Appropriate for Little Kids - I want my daughter and my sons to read about courageous women and girls. It’s hard to imagine a more courageous story than Malala’s. First, this book was appropriate for kids of multiple ages. My 7 and 9-year olds learned more about Malala from the detailed pictures. Her concrete home has cracked walls. A group of children literally pick through a trash heap to feed their families. There is a power in illustration to tell the context of the story, and for my two kids who already know Malala’s story and can learn more from illustration - well, it’s powerful. My 4-year-old has been deeply affected by recent school shootings near our house, and I didn’t want to read a book about someone getting shot going to school because he doesn’t need that right now - and nuance is lost when you’re four. This book gives you the option to talk about it or not. Malala is in a hospital gown with a bracelet on one page, but the shooting isn’t explicit. I have read the book several times with my little one, and he gets the courage and the context without getting more freaked out. Finally, the whole frame of her pencil being magical is just brilliant. Gold foil writing creeps across each page. And kids get that sometimes just telling your story - or listening to stories and taking action - is the central act of courage. ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | Best Sellers Rank | #26,247 in Books ( See Top 100 in Books ) #23 in Children's Social Activists Biographies (Books) #40 in Children's Women Biographies (Books) #173 in Children's Books on Girls' & Women's Issues | | Customer Reviews | 4.9 4.9 out of 5 stars (1,264) | | Dimensions | 9.63 x 0.5 x 10.63 inches | | Grade level | Preschool - 3 | | ISBN-10 | 0316319570 | | ISBN-13 | 978-0316319577 | | Item Weight | 2.31 pounds | | Language | English | | Print length | 48 pages | | Publication date | October 17, 2017 | | Publisher | Little, Brown Books for Young Readers | | Reading age | 3 - 9 years, from customers | ## Images ![Malala's Magic Pencil - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/91wtxGiPqDL.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Beautiful *by M***N on December 23, 2023* Everything about this book is beautiful, the story, the gold, the story behind the pencil, the representation, its highlight of social issues while providing hope, everything.

She begins the story about a television show that inspired her to dream of a magic pencil. As she grows up, she realizes the magic is her own voice and bravery to speak up. The shooting isn’t mentioned, but Malala alludes to it on one page: “My voice became so powerful that the dangerous men tried to silence me. But they failed.” This is a true #ownvoices autobiographical picture book. Highly recommend for elementary school history / social studies, and it's just a wonderfully inspiring book to have at home. We're so grateful to have this book in both English and Chinese! ## Frequently Bought Together - Malala's Magic Pencil - Shark Lady: The True Story of How Eugenie Clark Became the Ocean's Most Fearless Scientist (Women in Science Books, Marine Biology for Kids, Shark Gifts) - The Girl Who Thought in Pictures: The Story of Dr. Temple Grandin (Amazing Scientists, 1) --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.pe/products/47557115-malalas-magic-pencil](https://www.desertcart.pe/products/47557115-malalas-magic-pencil) --- *Product available on Desertcart Peru* *Store origin: PE* *Last updated: 2026-04-23*
