Alex is nine years old, a notebook full of erasures and a mind that never stops racing: he loses things, collects scoldings, trips over his thoughts and over steps. At home and at school he always hears the same scoldings: "Stay still!", "Don't get distracted!"... without understanding where he's going wrong. So he decides to apply the scientific method he's just learned at school: observe, take notes, experiment. Thus was born his "diary-that-is-not-a-diary." Daniele Nicastro (It's too much me!,Lapis) tells the story of a child who learns, page after page, to look at himself differently, discovering that the "too much" that everyone criticizes him for isn't a flaw, but his most authentic energy.
