This powerhouse picture book was created by 11 year old Aliana Rempel, recipient of the Manitoba Teacher’s Society Young Humanitarian of the year award. It speaks to the importance of education and features some unexpected heroes that come to aid a young girl when her school is closed down by the Taliban. And if you needed more encouragement to read this book, then yes, that’s a book endorsement by Malala on the front cover. #whatwereyoudoingatageeleven #msmclauchlanreads
