OUR VODOU: A VODOU BEDTIME TALE, Book 1
By Malou Beauvoir
“The spirits that carried us across oceans still walk beside us today.”
OUR VODOU is a beautifully illustrated children’s book that invites young readers (ages 6–10) on a magical journey through African and Haitian history, culture, and spirit.
Told through the gentle voice of a grandmother at bedtime, this first volume traces the story of our ancestors from the ancient kingdoms of Africa, where people lived in harmony with nature and the spirits of the earth, the rivers, and the skies. Children will meet rain spirits that help plants grow, water spirits that protect the seas, and wise ancestors who passed down their knowledge through songs and stories.
More than just a bedtime tale, OUR VODOU honors the beauty and sacred wisdom of Haitian Vodou—a tradition often misunderstood, yet full of love, respect for nature, and ancestral strength.
Perfect for:
✔ Children curious about history and culture
✔ Families sharing African & Haitian heritage
✔ Readers who love magical, spirit-filled stories
This is Volume 1 of a two-part journey that continues in Volume 2, which tells how our ancestors carried their beliefs across the ocean to Ayiti (Haiti), where Haitian Vodou was born.
Bring this story into your home and share it with the next generation—because every child deserves to know the magic of where we come from.

Book 1- follows our ancestors as they traveled across the African continent, settling in powerful kingdoms like Dahomey, Benin, and Whydah in West Africa - places rich with traditions, spirituality, and deep wisdom. But it also tells the harder parts of our story. The slave trade tore millions from their homes. Yet even in the darkest times, our ancestors carried something with them that could not be taken away: their spirits, their prayers, and their connection to the forces of nature - to the sea, the thunder, the lightning, and the mermaids who watched over them. Book 2 - the second part of the story brings us to a New Land, Ayiti - what we know today as Haiti. It was there, on this island, that African, Indigenous, and even European spiritual practices wove together, giving birth to Haitian Vodou: a beautiful, living faith of resilience, resistance, and healing.
