Book Description
Abandoned at birth, Ernest is a weak and vulnerable boy whose home is an orphanage in East Africa. Despite his withered limbs, though, he is not a helpless child. Independent and strong in spirit, he sets out on an adventure accompanied by a loyal, shape-shifting lizard and a gravity-defying swaddling cloth. With nothing but his humanity and wisdom as a guide, he faces grave dangers and fearsome enemies but also discovers new friends whose lives he touches and changes forever. Ernest Simba is not just a story, but a real boy with an inspiring and magical story to tell. Suitable for ages 10 and over.
