Akissi is 12 and going back to school… in Paris! She and her brother have just moved in with their great-uncle, but they’ve only got one thing in mind: going back to Abidjan. It’s not like integrating in France is easy: new country, new ways, new friends... And the French are so complicated when it comes to friendship. What’s so bad about hanging out with Marcel, the "Dictionary"? Since when do you have to pull off dares to join a group? Can Akissi count on April, with whom she shares a strange secret?
