Abstract
“Si tú quieres” set in Vigo, the book deals with different themes such as love, friendship, family and also heartbreak.
Dany is a 17-year-old boy who lives with his mother and has a very good relationship with his grandmother.
At school he is not motivated, he doesn’t like to study, but he is a good boy, kind and respectful.
He is in love with Sara, but she does not reciprocate, which encourages his lack of interest in his studies.
Everything starts to change in his life when he meets Don Daniel, an older man who works as a caretaker at his school, and he tells us about the friendship that develops between them.
This new friendship will have a positive impact on Dani’s studies and his life in general. ….
