17 yr old Malala Yousafzai wins 2014 Nobel Peace prize



Wow! I am so proud of this young woman.
Malala Yousafzai, the Pakistani girl who was
shot by the Taliban in 2012 for advocating
women's rights to receive an education in her
country, has just been announced as the 2014
Nobel Peace Prize winner...but she shares it
with another person, Kailash Satyarthi, an
Indian children's rights activist. He has been
active in the Indian movement against child
labour. They get $1.1million. Well deserving!
Malala is the youngest Nobel winner ever!
