Axum, an ancient Ethiopian city, once rivaled Persia and Rome in wealth and influence. It was a trade hub through which precious metals, silks and ideas fueled a thriving economy and vibrant culture. A series of fair-minded Ethiopian Kings offered peoples of many faiths to find sanctuary from threats abroad, and for centuries Christians, Muslims and Jews have shared Axum in peace. For thousands of years, Ethiopia has been known around the world as a land of justice and wisdom. Share this heart-warming tale of religious tolerance with your young reader. Side by side text in Afaan Oromo and English supports bilingual readers and colorful illustrations by Ethiopian artist Alemayehu Alex Regassa give beautiful context to the vast and fascinating history of West Africa. Written by Jane Kurtz for the Open Hearts Big Dreams series of bilingual books in indigenous Ethiopian languages. Every book you purchase helps support increasing literacy in Ethiopia and preserving ancient languages.
