“I want to tell you a story. It’s the story of a boy who was born on July 18th 1990 in Barcelona. It’s the story of a boy who was born early because he was so eager to see the world. It is also the story of what happened to that boy’s need to meet new people and to learn new things. Evidently, this is an adventure story.”
El món sobre rodes is the story of Albert Casals, a boy who, despite suffering from leukaemia, begins a journey at the age of fourteen, alone and in his wheelchair, across half the world. His non-conformist and adventurous spirit, his curiosity to discover the world and his determination to overcome adversity have made him into an exceptional globetrotter and he has now decided to describe his experiences in this book. A vital, sincere and direct tale that is the authentic story of a remarkable journey.
