The Granny Who Cycled Around the World

This charming literary gem full of hope is a call to discover the treasures that life offers us. To leave behind the patterns that make us unhappy or tired and to embrace new, exciting ones. To see the world as it really is, exactly as we saw it during the long years of our childhood, when everything sparkled. It encourages us to embark on a journey through our own souls in the company of the enchanting main character.

Ninety-year-old Mrs Maru leads a quiet life in Oaxaca, Mexico, where she shares her alfajor biscuits, the light of her soul, and her smiles with the children from the orphanage. She never learned to read, but she radiates wisdom. And when she finds out that her grandson, whom she has never seen, lives in Veracruz, she decides to get on her bicycle, her only possession in the world, and sets off to find the young man on a journey of discovery for the power of dreams.

With a style that is as agile as it is entertaining, writer Gabri Ródenas offers readers a true experience of self-discovery and healing, to find the magic of life within themselves once more.
