El corazón de Lucía

Lucía, now an adult and a pediatrician, remembers how as a child, after winning her last athletics race, she discovered that she had a serious heart problem and had to face it. Her memories mix fiction and reality: they intertwine her long stay in the hospital and her father's delicate job decision, with her dreams and the pirate stories that her mother read to her. This delicate story speaks, with realism but without drama, of the way to deal with the treatment of a serious heart ailment and its realistic solution, nothing childish or immature. It is a perfect work to address a topic that can be discussed with children in the second cycle of primary school: organ donation and the importance of saving lives.
