The City of Scholars
Timbuktu sat at the edge of the Sahara like a mirage made solid. Its mosques were built from mud and wood and towered over the streets. Its markets traded in salt and gold. But the most precious things in Timbuktu were neither of those. They were books. Hundreds of thousands of manuscripts, stored in private libraries behind every door, filled with mathematics, medicine, poetry, astronomy, and law — the collected wisdom of centuries.

The Scholar of Timbuktu
In Timbuktu — a city where books are more valuable than gold — a young learner stumbles upon a hidden manuscript in the great library that no one has read for three hundred years. What it reveals could change the whole village. But first comes the challenge of proving that a child can be a scholar too.
