Translated by Leanna Brodie
Inspired by West African legends, this story is of an ancient baobab tree standing tall amidst a persistent drought. One day the tree brings forth an egg and from the egg is born a little boy. The villagers recognize that this little boy is the only one who can undertake the quest to bring water back to the land. But there are four fomidable tasks to be completed before success is possible. Can a little boy change the history of the world?
