Barcelona, September 1992. The Olympic Games are over, summer’s coming to an end and thirteenyear- old Gúdrun is not too enthusiastic about going back to school and routine. But when her long-lost German father turns up out of the blue and the Paralympic Games get underway, Gúdrun’s mundane life takes an unexpected turn. On a twelve-day emotional rollercoaster she discovers not only some hidden truths about herself and her parents but also the vibrant, awe-inspiring world of the Paralympics and learns that just about anything is possible. Because, how would you ever imagine that a man with no arms could play table tennis? Young adult realist novel about personal growth, acceptance and human relationships.
