"The Little Who Dat Who Didn't" tells the story of a young boy named Buddy.  Buddy is not a Saint's fan.

"He's the only little who dat who didn't cheer for the Saints in the Super Bowl," McConduit said.

Throughout the book, Buddy regains his faith in the Saints once he sees how much pride and joy the Saints bring to New Orleans. 

25-year old, McConduit said the idea for the book just "came" to him, and he went with it.

The book is loaded with Saints and New Orleans references.

"It's really connected to the Saints.  The characters are named after different players, and coaches past and present,"  McConduit said.

"I want it to be a real New Orleans staple."

McConduit wants to reach as many children as he can with his book.  He goes to local schools and reads "The Little Who Dat Who Didn't" to them.

He's even started up his own publishing company to help children learn how to write their own books.  For him it's important kids see the importance of reading and writing.

"Right now my goals are to try and get this book to every kid in New Orleans.  I've found that books are a way to preserve all the moments in time," he said.

Preserving important moments in time like the 2009 Super Bowl winning season.

"I think the Saints tell the story that if you put in time and effort then you'll be successful."

McConduit will be releasing more books he wrote in the near future.  "Snowballs For All" and a prequel to "The Little Who Dat Who Didn't" called, "Buddy".  "Buddy hits shelves in August.

"The Little Who Dat Who Didn't" is available on Amazon.com, and at many New Orleans book stores.
