Fabulous, sweet, courageous and inspiring. This is a celebration of parents who model values of strength and courage to change ill-devised social norms and then support their children in their efforts to change the world.

kalista_putri's review against another edition

After reading I Am Malala and knew how big of an influence is her father in Malala's journey, I've always wanted to know the story of her father, how he was brought up to be an activist who believed in gender equality, and also how his relationship were with Malala's brothers as he spent a lot of time with Malala on the road doing campaigns. This book answered it all.

I've been following Malala's work since she was shot, having read her autobiography and watched her documentary, I didn't think I'd learn much more from this book but I'm so glad I read it.
Let Her Fly is under 200 pages yet filled with engaging stories from Malala's father. It was so interesting reading about his upbringing and Malala's extended family, how they ended up in Swat Valley, and his relationships with his sons.
I'm glad Ziauddin Yousafzai spoke about the class issue in Pakistan as there are many upper/middle class Pakistani women who are educated and respected, yet lower class Pakistani women have a completely different life.
I cried at the end when he described returning home and touching the soil, I wasn't expecting to be so moved by this book which was naive of me considering I cried reading Malala's autobiography and watching her documentary.

We need more men like Ziauddin Yousafzai in the world.
