Sékou is a young middle-schooler passionate about History. He never tires of sharing with his classmates the stories his grandfather Tingé tells him. One day, he runs into his classmates' incomprehension — they can't stand hearing his stories anymore. Torn between friendship and passion, Sékou's heart is divided. Must he give up who he is to stay friends with those he loves?

Through this book, I want to tell children that it's possible to love History at any age. More importantly, this book highlights the importance of knowing one's own history. It also reminds us that heroes are often among us, perhaps even within our own families. Sékou's dilemma in the face of his friends' reproach invites reflection on whether it's worth giving up what we love to please those around us — a reminder that it's essential to stay true to oneself. This book is full of surprises (there's a story within the story) and will delight young readers with the diversity of subjects it explores.
