Champions for Peace
Women Winners of Nobel Peace Prize
Judith Hicks Stiehm
Synopsis:
Only seventeen women have won the Nobel Prize for Peace since it was first awarded in 1901. Hailing from all over the world, some of these women have held graduate degrees, while others barely had access to education. Some began their work young, some late in life.
In this compelling book, Judith Stiehm narrates these women’s varied lives in fascinating detail.
The third edition includes the story of Pakistani activist Malala Yousafzai, the youngest laureate, who won as a teenager in 2014.
I Am Malala
Patricia McCormick
Malala Yousafzai was only ten years old when the Taliban took control of her region. They said music was a crime. They said women weren't allowed to go to the market. They said girls couldn't go to school.
Raised in a once-peaceful area of Pakistan transformed by terrorism, Malala was taught to stand up for what she believes. So she fought for her right to be educated. And on October 9, 2012, she nearly lost her life for the cause: She was shot point-blank while riding the bus on her way home from school.

Some of you think... Well, International Year for Peace and Trust was in 2021. Yes! But the world in 2025 is so dangerous, There is no peace in different countries and they are tormented so many people and the fear of a world war is touching us that the UN decided to repeat the respect for peace with the International Year for Peace and Trust 2025.
Let's develop students and teachers of lots of schools a positive development thought to the whole of humanity to Peace in the world!
