Petit Bodiel es una obra maestra de la literatura oral africana recopilada por Amadou Hampâté Bâ. La historia sigue a Petit Bodiel, un joven liebre perezoso y ambicioso que, decidido a convertirse en el rey de la sabana, solicita a Dios el don de la astucia y poderes milagrosos para cambiar su destino y el de su familia. Este volumen es una colección única de fábulas, cuentos y leyendas tradicionales del pueblo Peul. A través de un estilo inimitable, el autor invita a los lectores a sumergirse en la riqueza cultural de África, preservando tesoros de la memoria colectiva que de otro modo se habrían perdido con el tiempo.
Amadou Hampâté Bâ was a Malian writer, historian, and ethnologist. He was an influential figure in the twentieth-century African literature and cultural heritage. A champion of Africa's oral tradition and traditional knowledge, he is remembered for his 1960 address to the UNESCO General Conference in which he urged the preservation of Africa's oral traditions, declaring: "I consider the death of each of these traditionalists as the burning of an unexploited cultural fund". A later formulation using the word bibliothèque emerged during a 1962 UNESCO Executive Board exchange.
