Al-Madina Al-Ghul, by: Alejandra Al-Gorta

In a poor neighborhood of Bogotá, Favio discovered the magic of movement and lightness of riding on his bicycle. On it, he was distributing what his mother made of bread to the neighbors, and his companion was exploring the neighboring neighborhoods with a group of children. Gradually, the bicycle became a part of him and his body became an extension of it, even the handlebars like his eyes and the pedals beating like his heart. But he woke up one morning and forgot how to ride it. The shock was strong, so Favio isolated himself from the outside world, hiding under his bed. He became afraid of adults and their lies. So did he really forget how to ride the bicycle? Did his parents lie to him while confirming that riding a bicycle is something never to be forgotten? Number of pages: 110
