You’ve always been close with this friend in school, despite your academic rivalry. Your teachers will keep advising you to get involved into more extra curricular activities and not just work, in order to stand out like her. She’s already blogging about the life under Taliban for the BBC. She spoke out publicly on behalf of girls and our right to learn. Then one day she is sitting next to you on a bus journey home when a gunman walks on the bus asking ‘Who is Malala?’ After which they shoot right at her.

She is Malala and this is her story.
