Escrito por Francesca Cavallo, la autora de Cuentos de buenas noches para niñas rebeldes, uno de los libros más vendidos según el NY Times.

Beatrice Vio practica esgrima desde los 5 años. A los 11 años, contrajo meningitis y tuvieron que amputarle los antebrazos y piernas. Al principio, nadie creyó que le fuera posible volver al esgrima. Pero ella encontró la manera de hacerlo. Y no solamente ha ganado varios campeonatos, sino que también se ha convertido en un ícono popular.

Con ilustraciones de la artista pakistaní Maliha Abidi, éste es el tercer libro en la serie Atlelas Paralímpicos, una serie de libros ilustrados de no ficción que cuenta la historia de 4 campeones que hacen las cosas a su manera y están reinventando a los deportes.
