When a simple wish lands Addison on the shores of a strange country, she learns to trust a new friend in order to survive in a country so different from her own. M.A. Simcox’s The Pearl of Africa will take young readers on a journey that blends cultural facts with fiction and will encourage youthful imaginations to delve into the lives of people around the world. As the first book in the Adventures Abroad series, The Pearl of Africa will open your eyes to the world outside your doors. Danger and fear of the unknown lurk behind every corner, but the power of friendship can break down cultural and language barriers; you just have to believe.
The first book in the series, The Pearl of Africa, is a multicultural juvenile literature early chapter book. The Adventures Abroad series blends cultural facts with fiction, allowing young imaginations to delve into peoples’ experiences around the world. Each country-specific book takes readers on an exciting yet educational journey to a new place. Readers are left guessing the location of the adventure until the end of the book, unless they piece the clues together as they read. Readers, teachers, and parents can further explore key elements from the book with the use of the “Where in the World?” and “Fast Facts” sections at the conclusion of the story.
10% of all profits earned from the first book will be donated to Africa Inland Mission,
a non-profit organization that seeks to help transform lives and communities on the continent of Africa.
