Kim and the Secret Ark of Moses: Legends of Abyssinia Awakened
By Eskinder Yimer Haylu (Dr.)

What if one ancient book led to the greatest adventure of your life?

Ten-year-old Kim Walker isn't your typical Canadian kid. While others race bikes or play video games, Kim spends his time exploring ancient maps and reading dusty books about lost civilizations. But one summer, everything changes. Deep in the corner of his town library, Kim discovers a mysterious book about the long-lost Ark of Moses—the sacred chest said to hold the original Ten Commandments.

The book points to one place: Abyssinia, the ancient land now known as Ethiopia.

With permission from his family, Kim flies across the world to stay with his uncle Edward, a white Canadian diplomat in Addis Ababa. There, he meets Barkot, a brilliant Ethiopian girl and daughter of a university history professor. Together, the unlikely pair—one white, one brown—form a powerful friendship bonded by curiosity and courage. Guided by ancient clues, local legends, and Professor Solomon's wisdom, Kim and Barkot journey deep into Ethiopia's breathtaking landscapes.

From the underground churches of Lalibela to the mysterious island monasteries of Lake Tana, the children face riddles, ancient guardians, and secrets hidden for centuries. But in Axum, the rumored resting place of the Ark, their quest takes a shocking turn. A hidden world awakens—one filled with visions, sacred light, and an untold force that has waited generations to reveal itself.

Will they uncover the truth behind one of history's greatest mysteries?

Filled with suspense, friendship, culture, and courage, Kim and the Secret Ark of Moses is a thrilling adventure that blends historical legend with modern discovery. Perfect for readers who love Indiana Jones, The 39 Clues, or National Treasure—this is a journey through time, faith, and the wonder of Ethiopia.
