Binta has always believed that old stories belong in the past. But when she tells her grandmother that stories cannot build tomorrow, something impossible happens-family photographs turn blank, names begin disappearing, and a mysterious golden antelope leads her into a magical world where memory itself is in danger.
Guided by the wise Tyi Wara, enchanted Bogolan cloth, the singing River Niger, and the voices of her ancestors, Binta must collect the Seven Seeds of Wisdom before the Dust of Forgetting erases the stories, languages, traditions, and dreams of her people forever.
Along the way, she discovers that courage is stronger when shared, kindness can change hearts, creativity grows from wisdom, and the future is brightest when it remembers its roots.
Filled with adventure, humour, unforgettable characters, and authentic Bambara (Bamana) cultural traditions, The Antelope of Living Wisdom is a magical journey that celebrates African heritage, family, innovation, and the power of storytelling.
Perfect for readers ages 8-12, this inspiring adventure reminds every child that the greatest treasure they can inherit is a story worth carrying forward.
