Nine-year-old Thomas often sees what others don’t see - tropical fish in the city canals, the extraordinary beauty of Eliza, the girl with a leather leg. The kindness of the old lady next door, whom everyone considers a witch. And Jesus, who often comes to talk to Thomas. But besides this, he sees his father beating his mother, and even Jesus is powerless here. And only thanks to his friends, Thomas one day understands: to become happy, you just need to stop being afraid. “The Book of All Things,” a story by the famous Dutch writer Guus Kuijer, almost immediately upon release it became an absolute worldwide bestseller. In 2005, the book was awarded the Belgian literary prize "Golden Owl", and in 2010, in Australia, it was first staged in a play, which was a huge success.
