The protagonist is Elvis Karlsson, a six-year-old boy, bright and curious, who constantly questions the why of everything around him. Lacking answers, he builds his own explanations and invents a fascinating inner world that allows reality to be seen through his childish gaze.
«Elvis Karlsson» is the first installment of the «Elvis» series by Maria Gripe. The translation is by Leopoldo Rodríguez Regueira and the illustrations by Harald Gripe.
A reading intended for young readers, especially those seeking stories about family and self-knowledge.
