The audio version of ‘I Am Malala’ by Pakistani activist Malala Yousafzai has won the Grammy Award for ‘Best Children’s Album’ on Sunday.
According to foreign media reports, the audio version of the book ‘I Am Malala; How One Girl Stood Up For Education and Changed the World’ was honoured with the Best Children’s Album at the 57th Annual Grammy Awards. The book was narrated by Neela Vaswani under the label Hachette Audio. She said, “I had no idea it was even possible for a children’s book to be nominated. I hope Malala is happy. I’m thrilled to be a part of spreading her message further”.
‘I Am Malala’ is the memoir of a teenage girl, who risked her life for the right to go to school. Raised in Pakistan by an enlightened father from a poor background and an illiterate mother from a political family, she was taught to stand up for what she believed in.
The story relates Malala’s bravery and determination in the face of extremism, detailing the daily challenges of growing up in a world transformed by terror.
