Objetos Perdidos is a story about friendship, resilience and finding the value in the things we take for granted. Written for, and with input from, GCSE Spanish students, Objetos Perdidos is the ideal accompaniment to the GCSE Spanish course.


16-year old Joanna has run away to Spain looking for freedom and independence. Arriving in Madrid, she is looking forward to enjoying good food and experiencing the exotic Spanish culture. When she loses her money, her passport and her bag, however, she finds herself alone and hungry in a chaotic and intimidating city. But a chance encounter with the enigmatic Santiago, and his temperamental cat, doña Margarita, leads her to unexpected adventures and the chance to look at life from a different angle.


Will Santiago help Joanna to find her feet? And will Joanna learn how this kind, educated man ended up living on the streets?
