In October 2012, Malala Yousafzai made international headlines for standing up to the Taliban for her right to an education. At just 16 years old, she is an inspiration for women around the world and someone young girls can look up to as a positive role model. Her autobiography, I Am Malala: The Girl Who Stood Up for Education and Was Shot by the Taliban is this week’s True Tuesday Showcase.

Who are some other positive role models you can recommend for young girls? Please share with us in the comments.
