Jovan tapped the boy's textbook. "History isn't just a collection of dates when crowns changed hands or borders moved. It is a tapestry woven from millions of small, everyday threads. It is the humor of the soldiers in the mud of the Kolubara, the resilience of the mothers who kept families together during the long winters of exile, and the laughter shared over a table just like this one."
