A story about a boy who dares to dream of a big future, this picture book follows Malusi, a herd boy who tends to his grandfather's sheep and goats among the mountains of the Transkei, South Africa. High above, eagles fly, while on the ground below, beetles crawl, termites scurry, and dust flies as Malusi plays games of stick-fighting with his friend. However, danger lurks in the shape of a hungry baboon stalking the flock. Inspired by the life of former president Nelson Mandela, this is a tale of empowerment, self-belief, and leadership.
