Synopsis

A group of boys and girls who usually meet in an abandoned building, see their old refuge become a new commercial establishment: the Centre for the Promotion of Fantastic Initiatives. It is run by Ana, a woman with a touch of fairy about her. With her magical powers, she can make any desire become reality, as long as it is not a selfish request. The three wishes made by the children have the effect of transforming the city from top to bottom. An adventure novel protagonised by a gang of children, which is dominated by the environmental theme and the idea that it is possible to improve the world starting closest to home.
