The Book of Everything

The Book of Everything

by Guus Kuijer (Author)

Synopsis

Thomas Klopper sees amazing things that no one else can see: tropical fish swimming in the canal, sparrows playing bright trumpets and frogs wriggling through the letter box. When his father hits his mother, Thomas sees the angels cover their eyes and weep.

He writes it all down in The Book of Everything, including his wish: When I grow up, I am going to be happy.
