ታሪክ ባልተነገረላቸው ጀግኖች የተሞላ ነው።

ዓለማችን ላይ ለሰው ልጆች ሕይወት መሻሻልና ዕድገት ትልቅ አስተዋጽኦ ያበረከቱ ብዙ ድንቅ ሰዎች አሉ።

ብዙ ካልተፃፈላቸውና ካልተነገረላቸው ድንቅ ጀግኖች መካከል አንዱ ፕሮፌሰር አክሊሉ ለማ ይባላል። ተመራማሪው ፓቶባዮሎጂስት ኢትዮጵያዊ ፣ በስኬቱና ዓለምን ጭምር ባስደነቀ መልካም ሥራዎቹ ዕወቅናና ዝናን አግኝቷል።

አክሊሉ ገና በወጣትነት የምርምር ስራው "ሽሽትሶማየስስ" ለሚባል በሽታ መድሐኒት አገኘ። በዚህም ምክንያት አማራጭ የኖቤል ሽልማት ተብሎ የሚጠራውን ታላቅ ሽልማት ተሸላሚ ሆነ። ይህ ሽልማት በወቅቱ ለአክሊሉ ለማ ብቻ ሳይሆን ለኢትዮጵያም እጅግ ትልቅ ክብር ነበር።

ይህ የልጆች ስዕላዊ መፅሐፍ የእኚህን ታለቅ ኢትዮጵያዊ ሳይንቲስት ታሪክ በሚስብ ፣ በሚያስተምርና በሚያንፅ መልኩ ለልጆች የተዘጋጀ ነው።

History is full of unsung heroes.

There are hundreds, no, thousands of people from across the planet and throughout history who have done genuinely amazing things for the human race . . . and most people don't know a thing about them

This is the story of one of those heroes. An outstanding professor called Aklilu Lemma. He was a pathobiologist from Ethiopia and led an extraordinary life full of achievements, campaigns, and adventures.

Very early on in his career, Aklilu Lemma discovered a natural cure for a disease known as schistosomiasis, which won him an award called the Right Livelihood Award, also known as the "Alternative Nobel Prize." That was a MASSIVE achievement, especially for someone from Ethiopia This well-illustrated children's book narrates the true story of this scientist in a way that teaches and inspires children.
