Elias Makris is a primary school student, but he doesn't just write his lessons. He also writes his autobiography, which he has divided into notebooks, each with a separate theme: one with the games he likes, one with his old friends, one with his favorite foods, one with his big questions, one with his collections. In such a notebook, he also notes the definitions he gives to the strange or incomprehensible things he encounters on his way. In this notebook, he allows us to take a look here. And at the same time, he tells us how, passing through the forty waves of a detective mystery, he gave (or rather didn't give) the definition to the strangest and most incomprehensible thing, the definition of beauty!

A novel that speaks of beauty as children see it - but also how they seek it, understand it, envy it, think about it... and above all, how they fear it!
