Folch i Torres de narrativa infantil y juvenil "Hay personas que parece que hayan venido al mundo para cambiarlo, para abrir nuevos caminos, para hacer que la vida en este rincón del universo sea aún más especial.

Una persona con un nombre que te resonaba dentro de la cabeza cada vez que lo oías: CORNELIUS."
