Born in 

2014

This little boy, born in 2014, will start first grade in 2021. At first, he’s a funny, talkative little boy, but when it turns out he doesn’t get a bag, he turns into a grumpy guy. He lives in a family with two children, his father works in a pharmacy (but has no pharmacist qualifications), his mother is learning to become a hairdresser, but she also cooks and sells food in the market. The apartment where they live is very expensive, so sometimes it is a challenge to buy food. Ousmane had already learned to read, so far he had just gone to school out of curiousity. He carries water at home and takes home the wood scraps from the carpenter, which they use for cooking. A lively kid, if his belly is full, has no problems, or even if he gets what he wants: if he doesn’t, he will hiss until he gets what he wants - he has a good advocacy ability. He enjoys skipping ropes, drawing trees and houses. He wants to be a butcher. His dream is to have a toy plane and a backpack.
