BRAZILIAN BOOK CHAMBER AND
BRAZILIAN PUBLISHERS PROJECT
Brazilian Book Chamber (Câmara Brasileira do Livro – CBL) brings
together publishers, distributors, booksellers and door-to-door sales
companies since 1946. With 600 members throughout Brazil, CBL
gathers around a fundamental issue: building a country with better
education through appreciation of books and reading.
For over 69 years, Brazilian Book Chamber has been carrying out
actions of national and international scope. Its main initiatives feature
encouraging the participation of publishers in several international
fairs through the Brazilian Publishers Project, a partnership of CBL
and Brazilian Agency for Export and Investment Promotion (Agência
Brasileira de Promoção de Exportações e Investimentos - Apex-Brasil).
Over the past few years, Brazil has been guest of honor in Bogotá Book
Fair in 2012, Frankfurt Book Fair in 2013 (for the second time), Bologna
Children’s Book Fair in 2014 and Paris Book Fair in 2015. The tribute to
the Brazilian literature has significantly contributed to spreading around
the world diverse aspects of our culture.
In this scenario, the participation of Brazilian Publishers’ associates is
important in order to show the country´s editorial production for books
and rights exporting purposes. These initiatives have presented good
business results, which have turned Brazil into a publishing content
exporting country.
With the concept “Brazil reads the world. The world reads Brazil”, the
project enables publishing houses to become international players,
presenting attractive export offers and increasing the potential for
business generation.
All this work is focused on one purpose: celebrating the richness,
diversity and quality of our publishing industry.
I invite you to get to know more about our publishing production. I am
sure you will be surprised!

BRAZILIAN BOOK CHAMBER
Founded in September 20, 1946, the Brazilian Book Chamber (Câmara
Brasileira do Livro – CBL) represents 600 members throughout Brazil.
The entity, whose mission is to expand the Brazilian publishing market,
brings together publishers, distributors, booksellers and door-to-door
sellers, which gather around a fundamental issue: building a country
with better education through appreciation of books and reading.
The history of CBL stretches back to the cultural effervescence of São
Paulo in the 1940s, when a group of publishers and booksellers first
came together to discuss sector problems and searched for means
of collective and organized actions. From these meetings arouse the
proposal of creating an entity that could take on the task of publishing
and promoting books all over the country.
Over 69 years, Brazilian Book Chamber has been carrying out actions
of national and international importance. Its main initiatives feature
encouraging the participation of publishers in several international
fairs through the Brazilian Publishers Project, a partnership of CBL
and Brazilian Agency for Export and Investment Promotion (Agência
Brasileira de Promoção de Exportações e Investimentos - Apex-Brasil);
the organization of the São Paulo International Book Biennial (Bienal
Internacional do Livro de São Paulo); the more renowned literary merit
of the country, the Jabuti Award, and CBL International Digital Book
Congress (Congresso Internacional CBL do Livro Digital).
The Book School (Escola do Livro) is another valuable initiative that
provides continuing education and professionalism to representatives
of publishers, managers and executives. Always attentive to the
movements of the publishing market, the Brazilian Book Chamber,
in partnership with the National Union of Books Publishers (Sindicato
Nacional dos Editores de Livros - SNEL) publishes, annually, a complete
market radiography: the research on Production and Sales of the
Brazilian Publishing Market, held by the Institute of Economic Research
(Fundação Instituto de Pesquisas Econômicas - FIPE) of the University
of São Paulo (USP).
CBL also interacts with various government agencies, with the main
objective of tracking initiatives relevant to the sector, such as
parliamentary and government programs for promoting books and
reading. Its dynamism and capacity for national articulation have
made it a hub, in Brazil and abroad, for all issues relating to the
publishing industry.

Once upon a time, there was in Bagdad
a caliph who was well-known for his
wisdom and his love of books. It is said
that he used to devote some time of
his busy week to the solution of his
people’s civic problems. Once, there
was a conflict in which the owner
of a restaurant and a beggar called
Hashid were involved. The owner of
the restaurant expected the beggar to
pay him money on the grounds that
he had been outside his restaurant
“capturing the scent” of its food for
twenty odd minutes. By resorting to his
wisdom, which, according to him, he
had acquired from the books he had
read in his library, the caliph took some
coins that belonged to the beggar and
placed them close to the restaurant’s
owner’s nose, thus paying off the
beggar’s debt, considering the way in
which the food had been “consumed”.
At the age of 11, Sérgio must leave
behind his toys, the comfort of his
home and his caring parents to
enter a new phase: boarding school.
He is enrolled in the prestigious
Athenaeum – commanded by an
illustrious director: Aristarco. At first
dazzled by the aura of excellence at
the school, Sergio finds himself alone
in a completely foreign world. Behind
the acclaimed modern education that
attracts the children of the elite, we
discover a tyrannical system, driven
by the greedy excesses of the director.
Keeping the original text of Raul
Pompeia, Marcello Quintanilha creates
a masterpiece in comic book form.
When it is time to go to bed, Philip and
Gabriel always engage in the same
ritualistic routine: either their father or
mother will tell them a story until they
fall asleep, but this time things will be
different. Their parents have let them
know that they will be late from work
so they should not wait for them and
have dinner on their own instead. So,
the kids had dinner, played and waited
for their parents to arrive. When their
parents arrived, they told the kids to go
to bed because they were exhausted.
As a consequence, that night they
would have no stories. Phillip, however,
comes up with an excellent idea: “Why
not alter their nightly routine? What if
they tell stories to their parents until
the latter fall asleep?” In their narration
the kids combine scenes from several
well-known stories, but there was one
condition: they should all take place in
the woods, the mysterious, magic and
dangerous woods! Tom Thumb, The
Book of the Jungle, Snow White.

THORNY BRUSHWOOD
OF THE DEEP JUNGLE
Author: Ricardo Azevedo
Format: 17 x 24 cm
In the 16th century, a 15-year-old boy
finds himself abandoned after the
death of his mother, who is persecuted
on false charges of witchcraft. He is
fated to join the Portuguese overseas
fleet, setting off on a risky voyage to
the New World. His ship is wrecked,
however, and the youth faces months
of solitary survival in the unknown
and exotic lands of Brazil during its
early historical period. Encountering
settlers, he witnesses the curious
relationship between catechized
natives and the Portuguese. Amidst
passions, encounters, dangers and
discoveries, the youngster is exposed
to the conflict between established
truths and the unrest of a vibrant and
questioning life.

Author: Marcia Kupstas
Illustrator: Eduardo Medeiros
The animals of the Brazilian fauna are
the main characters of this delicate
masterpiece by Jos. Paulo Paes and
Rubens Matuck. The work consists
of eight poems accompanied by
beautiful watercolors, each one
dedicated to a different creature:
the ant, the macaw, the sloth, the
alligator, the hummingbird, the
anteater, and the agouti. Through
short and amusing verses, the book
stimulates children’s interest in the
expressiveness of language.
Alex is unhappy with his new life in a
big city apartment. He would rather
go back to the countryside. There he
could play in the street, his parents had
time for him and no one called him a
hick. Back in his hometown, he had no
problems at school and did not have to
put up with obnoxious girls like Beth.
If only she would just leave him alone,
especially now, as he is being punished
for something he didn’t do... If only he
could explain himself, he would have
much to say. Not knowing how to deal
with so many changes, Alex barely
notices the transformations occurring
inside of him, but such conflicts do not
prevent him from experiencing one of
the best discoveries in life.

Seven ducklings live peacefully in a pond
– until one day the hungry alligator
Barnabé appears. The terrible alligator
is very hungry and wants to eat all the
innocent ducklings. However, Barnabé
realizes that he needs to be really
creative if he wants to catch them, so
he dresses up as a movie star, as an old
lady from Bagdad, and even pretends
to be Batman, saying that he will put
Barnabé in jail. The last of the surviving
ducklings comes up with a crafty idea
and manages to save his siblings from
the alligator’s belly. The book is on the
2014 White Ravens list and is the winner
of many other prizes.
The book sensitively demonstrates how
the relationship between grandson
and grandfather (Leo and Teo) can
help to overcome each character’s
respective fears and anxieties. The little
boy Leo is afraid of the dark, because
in it he cannot see the future. Grandpa
Teo prefers to live in the dark, so he
won’t need to think about his own
future. One day, Teo teaches Leo how
to end his fears by playing with the
shadows in the room. Leo learns how
to be strong and to defeat his fears;
Teo remembers how good it is to
be a boy, with fewer worries… The
book provides a beautiful story about
learning and growing up.
Armanda is a friendly ladybug and
a bit gourmand; she loves to eat
caramel aphids. At school, everybody
likes Armanda and she likes to share
her caramel aphids. One day, when
Armanda runs out of aphids, one of
her schoolmates gets angry and calls
her greedy and fat as a salamander.
Armanda gets upset and her mother
takes her to Florisbela, a ladybug who
helps others to feel better. Florisbela
suggests that Armanda should vary
her meals and combine other foods
with her caramel aphids and get
more exercise. Armanda starts to
feel much better!
A polluted lake intrigues a group
of curious children. One day, Philip,
the most dramatic and worried
of the bunch, wakes up and decides
to discover how and why the lake is
dirty – the same day that Philip
disappears! His parents, his three
friends, his toothless dog Tobias, a
police captain, and a clumsy detective
with a questionable intellect look for
him, but who is going to end all the
family anguish? With very dynamic
and original language, the author
creates a very entertaining whodunit.
Peter Odd is a really strange boy.
He lives in a dungeon – actually the
basement of his parent’s house – and
collects a series of strange objects,
such as relics, vampire teeth and alien
souvenirs. He is sure that Malign, an
enemy spy, is part of a conspiracy that
haunts him. Chico, his only friend, is
not sure if he believes in all this, but
he also likes mystery and adventure:
he is writing a graphic novel about
the invasion of giant spider-zombies
that he and Liona, the Night Queen
(actually a girl he is in love with), must
fight to save the neighborhood. Wow,
that is a lot of odd things together!
Through the eyes of an 11-year-old girl
and her friends, we are transported to
a country under a military dictatorship.
We met General Pepper, who puts a
swift end to the children’s summer
vacation fun: he pumps the water from
the communal swimming pool into his
own private pool! The children decide
to fight against this repression – a fight
that represents much larger ones,
such as the repression of free speech
and individual liberties! The book also
includes the story of Uncle Zeca and
his fight to free his country.

Biruta is a children and young adults publishing house,
founded 15 years ago. We believe that the best way to value
our readers is to produce books of high literary quality,
with beautiful illustrations and bold graphics. Our books
have won many prizes, such as the Jabuti Prize, FNLIJ Prizes
(Brazilian version of the IBBY) and White Ravens. We believe
16
that allowing young readers to develop their intelligence
and emotions is our way of contributing to society. Biruta
in Portuguese means windsock – an old but still extremely
useful instrument that indicates the wind’s direction. Biruta
also means someone or something that is a little nutty –
and that is a description that fits us quite well!

The objective of “Ecosystems” is to
establish a basic doctrine for actions
and attitudes for environmental
protection within a systems view
of the environment. Samuel M.
Branco encourages the reader to
take an intellectual leap forward
in understanding the values and
functioning of analytical and synthetic
thoughts, with the intention of
providing a unified view of nature,
the environment and humanity.
The author emphasizes a unique
approach to solving problems
generated by the relationship
between human beings and
their environment.
This book is aimed at students,
technicians, and civil engineers.
It presents practical and direct
information on the main topics
of soil mechanics and foundations
for common civil works. The book
includes study of soils, characterization
tests, types and applications of the
most-used types of foundations,
embankments, and other works. It
also features case studies to facilitate
understanding of the matter.
This book aims to address the
fundamental concepts of statistical
physics for undergraduate and
graduate study. The book’s first
section discusses the basic structure
of traditional statistical physics, in
particular, various kinds of ensembles
and ideal gases. It is followed by a
discussion of the Langevin and FokkerPlanck equations. The formalism scale,
characterized by critical exponents
and customary phase transitions, and
applications involving phase transitions
in dynamic systems, are also presented.
This book presents the physical
principles of remote sensing (RS).
Intended mainly for graduate students
or advanced undergraduates interested
in the topic, the book can also be
useful for researchers interested in
using images or data gathered
through remote sensing.
This book is the third volume in
a trilogy on design. It presents a
transition or – depending on your
point of view – a departure from
design. Looking back to the1960s, it
serves as a precursor of the current
moment in which designers have
moved from the material the digital
sphere – a change alluded to in the
title. In general, the book is drawn
from lectures, interviews and essays
on topics related to the political and
cultural aspects of design.

The biosphere is very delicate and
susceptible to human activities.
Within it, we can find strange elements
discarded by evolution that are now
present through human activity.
Climate cycles are changing, and fossil
and mineral resources may be depleted.
More than ever before, men must
understand and respect the biosphere.

Rising from the ashes of an ancient
war, the continent of Relltestra has
experienced a long peaceful period.
The shadows of the past (dear angels
and feared sorcerers) have left, taking
all kinds of magic with them to their
graves. However, the First Iron Age,
when the only kind of “enchantment”
that existed was the forging of metals,
is coming to an end, and darkness
is returning. The Kings who rule in
Relltestra take up arms with a clear
aim: To bring back the power of the
forgotten beings! Shields will break,
swords will be destroyed, and in the
end, nothing will be left except rivers
of tears and broken crowns.
Welcome to the world of Tina, Nanda,
and Camila, the world of Beto, Alex,
Pisco, and their friends. They are all
between the ages of 11 and 12, live in
São Paulo, and attend the same school.
Together, they form friendships, and
experience drama, find their first loves,
and suffer through their first heartaches.
Who will be the first boy to kiss Nanda?
Will Tina ever stop being jealous of
Camila? And which boy will teach her a
lesson? Discover the answers to these
and many other questions as you read
through the Pages: of these books.
Two little foxes and their hilarious
adventures. This exciting new series
featuring two siblings, Bia and Beto,
begins with a sweet story about sibling
rivalry that also introduces children to
the concept of comparisons. In this
first book, each little fox is in search of
a box, but none seems to meet their
needs. Bia is looking for a box that is
smaller and smaller, while Beto hopes
to find a box that is bigger and bigger.
They are in competition for the best of
reasons: they each want to give their
mother a special gift.

ON YOUR HEAD
THE PRINCESS
WHO SAVED PRINCES
Author and Illustrator: Stella Dreis
Author: Claudia Souza
Illustrator: Christelle Ammirati
One morning, old Bob, still half asleep,
accidentally drops his dentures into the
toilet. While he calls many professionals
to solve this problem, the animals in
the sea and on land are having a great
time with the strange object. Thiago
Lopes’ tongue-in-cheek illustrations are
full of funny little details that children
love to discover, with rhymes that are
just as funny as the illustrations.
Where does happiness come from?
There once was a woman who was
laughing and singing and happy all
the time. She loved life! One day, her
three neighbors noticed she was using
a watermelon as a hat. Was that her
secret? Was that what made her so
happy? Happiness Is a Watermelon on
Your Head is a delightful story about
finding your own happiness.
Princes have been saving princesses for
years on end, but they’ve had enough.
Now the princes are the ones who
want to be saved. In this modern fairy
tale, the princess is not helpless, does
not faint when faced by dragons, and
is never locked in a tower. Against all
expectations, she invades the Witch’s
bedroom and must fend off painted
portraits with real eyes and mouths,
just to save the prince, but can she
do it? Can the princess save her
beloved prince in the end?

THE WORLD
OF JIA ZHANGKE
ALEXANDRE HERCHCOVITCH 1:1
Author: Alexandre Herchcovitch
OPISANIE SWIATA
Author: Veronica Stigger
Author: Jean-Michel Frodon
Mário Pedrosa is a very important
Brazilian art critic and political thinker.
Involved with three generations of
artistic tradition and an observer of
the political changes of the twentieth
century, Pedrosa not only sought to
understand his time but also helped to
strengthen the production of Brazilian
artists such as Helio Oiticica, Lygia
Clark, Lygia Pape, and Cildo Meireles.
This book brings together 31 articles
on visual arts written between 1933
and 1978, in which Pedrosa discusses
the basis of his critical position.
Witness of a moment of great change
in Chinese society, filmmaker Jia
Zhangke experienced and recorded
the accelerated transformation that
his country suffered during the period
between the Cultural Revolution and
the opening to capitalism, watching the
demolition of entire cities and the deep
shift in the habits of the population.
Richly illustrated with unpublished
photos of movies and scenes, the
volume contains an interview by the
author with the filmmaker and texts by
Jia himself about youth, creative process
and cinematographic references, beyond
Jean-Michel Frodon and Walter Salles’
essays, siting Zhangke’s production in
comparison to generations of Chinese
moviemakers and scrutinizing
film to film.
This book celebrates the two-decade
career of Alexandre Herchcovitch,
considered one of the most successful
and inventive Brazilian fashion
designers of his time. In the book, he
is interviewed by some of the most
influential names in the fashion world.
The book also addresses key issues in
his career, such as production, creation
methods, obsessions and the changes
the designer experienced as he moved
from his underground phase to the
pinnacle of professional success. Richly
illustrated (with an exclusive photo shoot
by Bob Wolfenson), 1:1 also contains texts
by Álvaro Machado, Fernanda Young,
and Charles Cosac, and is fundamental
for understanding the creative universe
of Alexandre Herchcovitch, as well as the
past two decades of Brazilian fashion.
Opisanie Swiata means “description of
the world”. The title was taken from
the Polish version of Il Milione, Marco
Polo’s travel book. The novel recounts
the journey of Opalka, a Polish man
who lived in Brazil in 1930’s. He receives
a letter from Natanael, an unknown
son who is on the verge of death, and
decides to travel to the Amazon to
meet him. During this long journey,
he meets Bopp, an eccentric man
who decides to travel with him and
becomes his friend.

FROM THE IKPENG CHILDREN
TO THE WORLD: A DAY
AT THE IKPENG VILLAGE
Author: Cadão Volpato
Illustrator: Felipe Guga
There is nothing like visiting an Ikpeng
village with indigenous children as
guides. In this book, the reader is
introduced to Yampï, Yuwipó, Kamatxi,
and and Eruwó, who invite us to visit
the chief’s house, have a bath in the
river and eat fruit straight from the tree.
We learn about men’s and women’s
tasks – and how boys and girls cooperate
to do chores and play with toys they
build themselves. The A Day in the
Village collection offers an authentic
and contemporary perspective on
different indigenous people, letting
them tell their own stories.
Margarida always heard the phrase
“Hold your horses” when she was
about to do something mischievous.
She just wanted to paint her nails
blue, for example, but her mom would
shout about horses. What her mom
could not imagine is that her daughter
talked to horses telepathically. After
growing up, Margarida forgot about
her gift, recovering it only when she
encountered a horse in the rain. An
enjoyable story about many possible
worlds contained within the one
we live. Photograph-style illustrations
created by Felipe Guga capture the
fantastic tone of the text in
beautiful images.

A pretty princess, arriving at marriageable
age, could not find a candidate to win
her heart. Her maid, tired of seeing
the sad and lonely girl, believes the
following: the prince is not showing up
because he is enchanted, transformed
into a frog. She simply has to find the
small animal and kiss him, and soon a
handsome and elegant boy will appear
in front of her, but how many frogs will
the princess kiss until she finds the one
who can change her life?
THE SLEEPING GRANDMA
THE GREEN DREAM
COLLECTION
This book is about a boy and his
grandmother. This book is about
forgetting and remembering, about
staying and leaving. This book is about
breads and kites, soup of flowers and
invitation to the Moon. This book is also
about a love story. A love so intense that
a child disappears deep inside of it! Do
you believe that? Read it and believe!
The Green Dream Collection (five titles)
was written to raise awareness, through
a literary lens, about new ethical needs.
The idea is to alert new readers to
the challenges imposed by climatic
changes or by unbridled consumerism,
for instance. The goal is to encourage
them to think about their own aspirations
and possible actions to build a future
aligned with sustainable development.

FINANCIAL THERAPY
THE MONEY BOY
COLLECTION
Have you been asleep through your
life like a resigned Sleeping Beauty?
Are you, like Cinderella, waiting for
Prince Charming to solve your financial
life? Or have you settled for spending
part of your days like Snow White, living
in the house of the Seven Dwarfs? In
simple language, Reinaldo Domingos
shows his readers the ten steps on
the way to really having money.
To do this, he summons ten female
characters from fairy tales to help him.
If, from now on, you no longer receive
your monthly income, how long would
you be able to maintain your current
standard of living? With this challenge,
Reinaldo Domingos talks about an
issue common to most people: lack of
a financial reserve to face unexpected
situations and total disregard for
future needs. By applying the DSOP
Methodology, you will learn that saving
money and preparing yourself for a
more comfortable financial future with
many accomplishments is possible.
With the gentle, amusing language,
The Money Boy Collection is composed
of books that aim at nurturing a
small reader’s dreams, dividing them
into material and non-material. Each
volume of this collection is based
on distinct topics: Family, Diversity,
Entrepreneurship, Sustainability,
Autonomy, and Citizenship.

GERALDO DE BARROS:
THAT’S IT
HIEROPHANY | THEATER
ACCORDING TO ANTUNES FILHO
Editor: Fabiana de Barros
Author: Sebastião Milaré
Geraldo de Barros (1923-1998) was one
of the most important representatives
of Brazilian modernism. He learned
about the principles of the Ulm
Superior School of Design (Germany),
bringing the knowledge to South
America and encouraging many
of his colleagues to join the concrete
art movement. He cultivated contacts
with the European avant-garde and
was a pioneer in developing new trends
such as pop art in Brazil. This book
presents an overview of his life and
work, chronologically arranged and
covering all types of his works (painting,
industrial design, drawing, engravings)
with an emphasis on photography.
The result of ten years of research,
Hierophany documents and discusses
the method created by director
Antunes Filho, including aesthetical
references, exercises, bibliography,
practice and ideology, in addition
to discussion of performances based
on such work. The first part focuses
on the foundation of the Macunaíma
Group and the Center for Theatrical
Research (CPT), as well as techniques
and expressive means for actors. The
second part includes the systematized
method and exercises, based on the
belief that a human must transform
himself to be an actor. Winner of
the Cooperativa Paulista de Teatro
[São Paulo Theater Cooperative] award
for best publication on the topic of
theater in 2010.

LINA BO BARDI SERIES
BARÉ | RIVER PEOPLE
Editor: Marcelo Ferraz
(box with 6 books)
Editors: Marina Herrero
and Ulysses Fernandes
Beginning with the original texts
written by Lina Bo Bardi about her
projects, along with contemporary
analysis and abundant illustrations,
this collection brings to the public
six titles, about each individual space.
Edited in partnership with IPHAN –
Institute of the Historic National
Heritage, the collection includes the
following books: São Paulo Museum
of Art, Sesc Pompeia’s Factory, Oficina
Theater, Glass House, Espírito Santo
do Cerrado Church, Unhão Manor.
This book presents the culture,
legends and challenges of the ethnic
communities of Baré, located near the
towns of Santa Isabel do Rio Negro and
São Gabriel da Cachoeira, on the banks
of the Rio Negro in Amazonas state.
The project includes a region with a
strong social breakdown, which has
undergone numerous pressures since
the arrival of Europeans to the most
recent invasion of miners, and which
is notable due to its dramatic rate of
suicides among the young population.
The devastating acculturation process
involves the loss of traditional knowledge,
oral tradition and artistic techniques
of great value, leading the indigenous
population to deny their indigenous
identity. This book is an initiative to
register and therefore strengthen the
Baré people.

Aesop’s fables have traveled across
centuries – and even millennia – without
losing any relevance. These tales allow
us to ponder human nature and to
understand the world we live in.
Aesop, who lived as a slave in Ancient
Greece, managed to be freed thanks
to his storytelling ability, but many of
his fables were actually far older; they
were found in Egyptian papyruses,
dating from nearly a thousand years
before Aesop’s time. The wisdom
found in these fables continues to
fascinate us today.
In a forest on the verge of extinction
lived an old vegetarian wolf. Sad and
lonely, he met a hunter, but his killer
instinct had been out of use too long,
and his sense of smell had diminished.
In this story of life and death, extreme
emotions are captured in black and
white. Who is the man and who is the
wolf? Does it even make any sense
to ask this question?
Vanda Vamp is a little vampire girl who
loves music and dancing. However, she
suffers because she can’t see her own
image reflected in a mirror. In this story,
the little vampire girl’s life and emotions
show the reader that deep feelings can
make the impossible real.
The owl could hardly keep her eyes
open. She was so sleepy…But she was
so scared that she could not sleep.
The Moon was worried and she told
the owl not to be scared. Was the
Moon able to calm the owl down?
What about the owl? Could she
finally get to sleep?
A trunk, a wing, a very long tongue, a
huge neck and an elegant purse. These
are the clues about animals near and far.
“A Gift of Love”, “Ponaim’s Wish”, and
“Potira and Itagibá”. The love stories
found in this book show the beauty
of the symbolic tales that originated
in Brazil’s native tribes. Together with
Portuguese and African influences,
the indigenous tribes form the basis
of Brazil’s historical and cultural
formation and national identity. For
these reasons, these stories must be
preserved for new generations.

Author: Sergio Vilas-Boas
With a unique approach, the text
presents the academic works of
professors and researchers involved in
teaching and research of multi- and
interdisciplinary postgraduate courses.
By highlighting the importance
of theoretical and conceptual
foundations applied to the practice
of interdisciplinarity on teaching and
research, it reveals the development
of a scientific community that is aware
of the complexity of life and society
demands, and shows commitment to
the pursuit of knowledge needed to
address and solve these demands.
From artists and writers to
businessmen, soccer players and
“ordinary people”, the revised and
expanded new third edition of this
book presents literary profiles of 22
personalities, through a journalistic
approach that is both biographical and
autobiographical. With the intention
of better understanding his famous
subjects (such as Paul Auster, Gabriel
García Marquez, Cristovão Tezza, Tostão,
among others), Vilas-Boas creates
unique narratives. A formidable example
of nonfiction writing in the tradition
of The New Yorker pieces, with a pinch
of Brazilian sauce.

In this book of illustrations, figures
and shadows make us imagine things.
But when we turn the pages, we realize
the shadows tricked us. A fun play
in which illusion makes us thinks
about the different ways of observing
and perceiving the world.
The book arose from plays in which

for his daughters and they tried to
guess what these figures really were.
When they reached out to the figures,
they realized that they were almost
always mistaken!
This fun game generated delicious
and even philosophical conversations

FLICTS
Author and Illustrator: Ziraldo
The world may be made out of colors,
but none of them compares to Flicts.
A rare, frail and sad color that doesn’t
seem to fit in anywhere, for it has not
made friends with the other colors,
which despise it. Can you picture Flicts
among the others in the rainbow?!
No way! Cast off, Flicts gazes at the
sky and up it goes: finally, it can see
the world from up above and decides
it has found its righteous place.
Flicts is a poetic, though unassuming,
narrative about the essential need
to respect the differences.
Six-year-old Zeze is poor, intelligent
and sensitive. As he can’t find the love
he craves for at home, he walks along
the streets playing all kinds of pranks.
He learns everything by himself and
devises a fantasy world of his own
where his great confidant is Xururuca,
an orange tree. This is one of Brazilian
Children and Youth Literature greatest
classics of all times.

Nelson Cruz’s Visual Haikus unites
the beauty and simplicity of a haiku,
the playfulness of a newspaper comic
strip and the brevity found in both
types of text. The book presents ten
short, silent stories that invite us to
a surprising journey in the company
of René Magritte, the painter of
dreams, King Kong, who comes
straight from a movie screen,
and Alice, from Wonderland.
This book by Marcos Bagno is an ode to
Bagno’s deceased brother and recounts
“stories” of his simple life, dignified
by his connection with nature. In this
narrative, the tragedy of his death is
perceived from a sensitive point of
view: with no drama, and as a learning
and growth experience. The book has
won the following awards: Fundação
Biblioteca Nacional Award 2013
(1st place) in the category of Books
for Young People and the 2nd Prêmio
Brasília de Literatura Award 2014
(1st place) in the category of Books
for Young People.
The Boat of Dreams is a charming
narrative in which reality and dream
are mixed. The beautiful images
in this book reveal the magic that
can arise from a blank piece of
paper, at the hands of an old
man or a young boy, thanks
to the mysterious correspondence
between both characters.
This book is the fruitful meeting
between Brazilian writer Paulo
Venturelli and an illustrator from
another corner of the world,
Fereshteh Najafi, an Iranian artist.
Together, they tell us the story of
Pê, a small and curious boy who is
surprised by the immensity of the
universe. Pê accepts the challenge of
looking deep into himself to discover
the size and ways of his spirit.
Prize-winning Italian illustrator Anna
Laura Cantone created images for
this fun and absorbing narrative by
Adriano Messias, in which several
animals come together to live a
very special evening together.

delightful text in which desires and doubts
come to light through imagination. A boy
had just finished his homework when
his father stepped in, saying there was a

everyone’s attention. How could this be
possible as they were far away from the
sea? It did not take long for them to head
to the city center in order to see the whale
with their own eyes. With a good dose of
humor and great illustrations by Nelson
Cruz, Visit to the Whale is a book you can’t
stop reading until the very end. The book

A mysterious crow lands on the breast
of a statue of Athena and sees the
profound heartbreak of a man after the
loss of his beloved, Lenore. One of the
best known poems in literature, “The
Raven” by Edgar Allan Poe, is presented
in this book. This is a graphic and
Brazilian version of the classic by the
artist and musician Manu Maltez. The
hardcover volume includes exquisite
graphics and also contains the original
version of the poem in English and two
translations of it into Portuguese.
A glass of water may seem to us to be
of very little importance, but, in fact, in
some cases, it may mean a lot! Think
of a little bird on a very sunny, hot day:
a glass of water will quench the little
bird’s thirst; think of a kid that wishes
to play with soapsuds: a glass of water
means a lot of fun; think of a little fish
out of its pond: a glass of water means
salvation; think of a flower that is
withering away: a glass of water means
survival; think of paintbrushes that
have been working all day long: a glass
of water is the long-awaited rest. In
these humble (but highly meaningful)
verses, we can see that water is really
essential for us; it is also clear that what
we do with it is very important for its
preservation. At a time in which water
is scarce at a worldwide scale, the
verses in A Glass of Water may raise kids’
awareness of the fact that preserving
water is of utmost importance since it
is a non-renewable resource.
Dandara, a little girl that lives is São
Paulo, gets a present from his friend,
Tulany, who lives in Mozambique. It’s
a capulana! In the little boy’s land,
this is a traditional and well-known
material. It is used for many different
things: to cover one’s body or head, as
an ornament, to carry one’s baby on
one’s back, to make very special gifts
on special occasions... The story of the
friendship between the Brazilian girl
and the Mazambiquean boy helps to
keep a very beautiful African tradition
alive, especially among the peoples
of Mozambique. It also bears witness
to the fact that communion between
people from very different cultures is
both possible and enriching.
After its participation in World War II,
Raimundo dos Anjos quits his military
career and sets up a detective agency
called “Anjos Investigação.” The business
is not doing well, but things change
for the better when Colonel Juvêncio
Malaquías hires him to work on a very
intricate case: the disappearance of
cattle from his farm. Without hesitation,
Raimundo decides to take up this
challenge. Next thing we know, he
catches a Sertão Paraibano-bound
train. In order to solve the “riddle”,
Raimundo will need to stop resorting
to logical reasoning, which is what
most detectives do, and he will need
to face up to his past and get mixed
in a world of cowboys, legends and
powerful sentences. With xylography
work produced by the writer himself,
Capiongo’s Mystery portrays the culture
of this region. In addition, suspense will
thrill the reader – the result of
both sound research and Joaquim
de Almeida’s indisputable talent.
Guilherme and William are on the same
train. From the very beginning of their
journey, they are sitting close to each
other and exchange inquisitive looks.
As the story unfolds, the reader starts
discovering what happens on the
young characters’ minds; he learns
about their concerns, discovers the
reason why the events that take place
on the carriage affect each of them;
also, he will adhere to the intolerance
that arises out of prejudices and
assumptions that have no bearing in
reality. Tension mounts and reaches
its peak by the end of the train ride.
With an innovative and creative text
that evokes young people’s language,
the book The Final Line promotes
reflection on controversial issues such
as homophobia, AIDS, and racism, to
name a few.
Although most books on indigenous
people’s issues deal with legends and
stories related to their past, in this
story Betty Mindlin introduces us to
her own granddaughter, Olivia – a girl
from a sky-rocketing city – who lives
in harmony with present-day indians
right in the middle of the Amazon
Jungle: she lives in an oca (typical
Brazilian indigenous house), eats
mandioca, maize, porcupine, sleeps on
a hammock, bathes in the river, listens
to the chamán’s stories, and collects
wild fruit from the jungle… She is
always being taken care of by an older
indian girl; her grandmother is doing
so, too: at a distance she is constantly
keeping an eye on her. This book is
unique; it is the result of combining
two talented authors who have shared
experiences with indigenous people:
anthropologist Betty Mindlin and
illustrator Ciça Fittipaldi.

and Adriana Dusilek
Jewish immigrants began to arrive
in Brazil at the beginning of the 16th
century, and they would continue
to arrive into the first decades of the
20th century. Brazilian historiography,
however, ignores the existence of such
immigration; there is no trace of their
story in school or university textbooks.
In this work, the sociologist Eva Blay
proposes the importance of retaining
this historical feature.
In this study the authors evaluate the
family allowance program known as
Bolsa Familia, with a focus on assessing
not only on achieving economic
improvement but on achieving
autonomy – moral, economic and
political – for women who are entitled
to receive this benefit. Furthermore,
it has been demonstrated that cash
aid programs generate significant
impacts on the beneficiaries’ lives,
incomparable to those provided by
other types of benefits.
Connecting with the “people” was one
of the greatest aspirations of both leftwing Brazilian artists and intellectuals
during the civil-military dictatorship
of 1964-1985. The new country they
aimed to construct was therefore
based on nationalistic roots. What
inspired them in this quest, and was
lost in the logic of the global market
of the 1990s? What legacy might the
movement have left?
Meticulous and well-documented,
this study leads the reader through
a historic walk along the military,
social and economic events that
would lead to World War II. The
author incorporates these episodes
to demonstrate the little recognized
importance of the participation of the
Brazilian Expeditionary Force (FEB) in
the conflict.
Presenting Machado de Assis as a
literary critic, this book also addresses
the beginnings of this type of literary
production in the country, which
flourished in the mid-18th century.
In addition to a significant number
of texts published by de Assis in
periodicals of the era, some never
published in book form, this book’s
content traces his career as a critic,
depicting his maturation as a forefather
on this form of writing in Brazil.

An analysis of the political, economic,
social and ideological context that
led to the abolition of slavery in Brazil,
this book demonstrates that although
abolition was an important positive
development, the mere liberation of
the slaves was only a first step toward
the true emancipation of Brazil’s black
population. The author connects the
process of abolition to both the rise
of the bourgeoisie in Europe and the
increasing interest of Brazil’s own
plantation class in employing free
white immigrant labor.

THE NATURE OF SPACE:
TECHNIQUE AND TIME,
REASON AND EMOTION
Author: Boris Fausto
Author: Hugo Segawa
Covering a period of more than
500 years, ranging from Portuguese
colonization to current times, Boris
Fausto narrates the most important
aspects of Brazilian history. In his
detailed analysis of the greatest
influences in the country’s creation,
the author examines fundamental
institutions, such as the colonial
system and the authoritarian regimes
of the 20th century. He emphasizes
sociopolitical practices, challenges
controversial issues and presents
synthesized and updated statistical
data, as well an overview of recent
years in the concluding chapter.
A perspective into 20 century
Brazilian architecture, which initially
proposes a reinterpretation of the
modern movement up to World War II,
organized in three sections: pragmatic
modernism, pragmatic modernity and
current modernity. Addressing the
post-war period, the author analyzes
ideological impacts as well as the
country’s main architectural works and
their creators – among them, Oscar
Niemeyer, Lúcio Costa, and Vilanova
Artigas. It is an original study on the
controversies, achievements and
failures involved in constructing spaces,
buildings and cities in a country that is
constantly undergoing change.
For Milton Santos, space is an
inseparable whole system of objects
and actions. It is based on this idea
and on the notions of technique and
time, reason and emotion, that the
author proposes the construction
of a system of thought that seeks
to understand geographic areas.
Taking into account the new reality
brought by the globalization process,
the geographer Milton Santos sought
aid in history, philosophy, sociology
and other humanities and social
disciplines, in order to propose the
general theory of human space.
Due to its rich analysis, the book
brings great interest to geographers
and professionals who research
urban issues.

BECOMING FREE: HISTORICAL
AGENCY, SOCIAL STRUGGLES,
AND THE PROCESS OF
BRAZILIAN ABOLITION
Editors: Maria Helena P. T. Machado
& Celso Thomas Castilho
This book sheds new light on the
complex and multifaceted historical
experiences of Afro-Brazilians in their
struggles to become free and define
freedom. Drawing on an international
team of scholars based in Brazil, Europe,
and the United States, this study
illuminates the international and
trans-Atlantic dimensions of abolition.
Becoming Free situates the process
of emancipation in terms of gender,
family, slave labor, social movements,
urban and rural life, and journalism;
and, it underscores the political nature
of the enslaved’s struggles for freedom,
including their salient roles in setting
anew the debates over their place in
post-emancipation society. According
to the co-editors, “Becoming Free brings
forth new scholarship on Brazilian
abolition, and fosters further reflection
on the gains achieved, as well as, the
challenges that persist for overcoming
the national legacy of slavery.

Every night Monkey went to Daddy’s
bed to play and wouldn’t let Daddy
sleep. Monkey just wouldn’t stay in his
own bed and every night he’d come
up with an excuse – one day he was
cold, the next day he was hungry, then
he needed to go to the bathroom…
There was always something. One day
Daddy had a talk with Monkey, and
Monkey explained he just missed his
father during the night. This is one of
a handful of books that don’t focus on
the stereotypical “macho-man” father
role; rather it reinforces a more modern,
nurturing father figure.
Three of the greatest fables attributed
to Aesop, all sublimely rewritten by
award-winning Ana Maria Machado –
one of the most well-known authors
in Latin American literature. These are
entertaining and instructive tales that
provide lessons in friendship, greed
and honesty. This book is perfect to
teach young children to deduce, infer
or interpret information, events or
ideas from texts.

CONCEPTS OF THINGS
Author: Darcy Ribeiro
Illustrator: Mauricio Negro
This book includes all the enchanted
stories – otherwise known as fairy
tales – written by Marina Colasanti
over more than three decades.
Nothing about these stories is
predictable, neither the language
nor the content. They are based
on ancient narratives, yet they
are beautifully modern, and able
to speak to people of all ages
and nationalities. Using fantastic
characters and scenarios,
these stories seek answers to
the questions that all human
beings share.
A long time ago, the Brazilian word
“giroflê” was used as a synonym for
“Indian clove”, a spice traditionally used
in Brazilian cooking. Touched by the
enchanting universe of India, Cecília
Meireles brought back the use of that
ancient word, naming her book after
it. In this book, Brazil’s greatest female
poet created narratives that evoke the
poetic aspect of childhood games,
with tales that represent a special
period of time and that, above all, give
readers the opportunity to experience
the magical elements that are always
present in our daily lives.
In Teadorar, Manuel Bandeira,
accompanied by the skillful
illustrations of Orlando Pedroso,
writes on the daily events that
make us tremble, that keep us
awake at night, that burn the heart,
and make us smile and cry. In other
words, the urges that make us feel
alive. With his ability to create
new realities and to easily attract
readers to try them, the writer
lovingly explores the power that
words have to change the world.
In this book, the anthropologist
Darcy Ribeiro explains to children
the basic concepts needed to live
in a society. He talks about major
issues of humanity, showing the
reasons why we all need to care
for Nature and respect the differences
among people. He addresses these
questions that seem so simple, but
in fact end up being great challenges.
Ribeiro approaches issues in a very
light, fun yet authentic way, appealing
to a child’s heart.

THE GERMAN BROTHER
WHO, ME?
RESTINGA
P’S THREE WOMEN
Author: Chico Buarque
Author: Fernando Aguzzoli
Author: Miguel Del Castillo
Author: Paulo Emilio Sales Gomes
In 1960s São Paulo, Ciccio finds a letter
written in German in a book from his
father’s vast library, and from this letter
emerge clues that his father had a
son during his time in Germany, from
1929-1930. With this, a lifetime mission
emerges. In a timeframe that reaches
present-day Berlin, with the horror
of the Brazilian military dictatorship
and in the Holocaust as a backdrop,
The German Brother leads the reader
through dizzying paths through this
search for truth and love.
In 2013, Fernando Aguzzoli gave
up his job and studies to take
care of his grandmother, Nilva,
diagnosed with Alzheimer’s disease.
Living together, they shared fun
moments, stories and confidences,
which he decided to share on a
Facebook page. Updated with
Fernando’s daily posts and photos,
the page touched hundreds of people
and gained thousands of fans. This was
the start of Who, Me?, a collection of
their time together, and the book also
includes interviews with professionals
to help other families facing the
same challenge.
One of the greatest revelations in
Brazilian contemporary prose, Miguel
Del Castillo combines memory, politics
and family stories in an amazing book
debut. In Violeta, one of the best recent
Portuguese-language stories, the
author investigates the effects of the
great collective tragedies on private
lives. It’s no surprise that Miguel has
been named among the twenty best
young Brazilian writers by Granta.
Restinga is a strong and new literary
project, with stories that alternate
between the delicacy, solitude and
connections of love and friendship.
P’s Three Women is composed of
three novels that all share a common
narrator in Polydoro, a wealthy figure
in the São Paulo elite. In the first story,
while still young, he is seduced by
his teacher’s wife, discovering thirty
years later that she seduced him at
the request of her husband. In the
second story, he is involved in a marital
war and does whatever he can to get
a divorce. In the final story, now in
his seventies, he records his marital
satisfaction in a diary; against the
wishes of relatives and associates, he
has married a young secretary named
Ela. Years later, he begins a second diary
to understand the changes she went
through, as she now wants a divorce.

With the entry of the Soviet Union
in Hungary in 1956, Írisz runs away
from Budapest, leaving behind her
sick mother and a past full of gaping
holes. When she arrives in São Paulo
to study orchids, this unique and
indecipherable woman soon
fascinates Martim, director of the
Botanical Garden. Now that Írisz has
disappeared, he will have to fill his
emptiness with unorthodox reports
left by her, which traverse the
particularities of language, the crisis
of a communist utopia, personal
memories and some – quite unusual
– observations regarding orchids.

Henrique is a typical boy. He is in
college, works part-time at a gas
station and has a girlfriend, but
everything changes when his best
friend hits his head in a freak accident
and is hospitalized in a coma. After
emergency surgery, there is not much
to do for him, doctors say. It is then that
he begins to write letters to his friend,
as a conversation, reporting what goes
on during his absence. Interspersed
with short stories, the letters gain a
new dimension: to what extent does
he really know what happens around
him? What do other people think?

CAT GIRL

Fefê Torquato
Author: Ique Carvalho
Gigi is a girl who spends half of her
time sleeping… and all of it bored.
Why would anyone care about her life?
Because Gigi is half girl, half cat. She
comes from a family of cat-people, the
only of their kind – or so they think.
In the book, Gigi faces daily problems,
such as stealing other people’s seats,
torturing insects, and living with the
family’s leader Fefê, who is completely
jealous of her boyfriend Danilo.
Ique Carvalho was always fascinated
by people and he decided to write
about this love in a blog, “The Love
Code”, created in 2010. The blog started
on the same day that he found out
that his father was suffering from a
degenerative disease and that his
girlfriend broke up with him. “Faça
amor, não faça jogo” is a book not only
focused on romantic relationships, but
also human relations in general, like his
story with his dad, who becomes sicker
day after day.

executive Alda de Miranda and
photographer Cacio Murilo, who
makes plants, fruits and vegetables
come alive by carving them
into fun animals.

this book, which features fun verses
by writers Maria Cristina Raposo de
Mello and Milton Célio de Oliveira
Filho. This book allows for reflection
on childhood, obesity, and bullying.

need heroes, because he has just
become one.

The box set contains six facsimile
editions of the most important
magazines on Brazilian Modernism
of the 1920’s. Each publication
features the full reproduction of
every issue of the magazines,
including a separate general index:
Klaxon, Revista de Antropofagia, Verde,
Terra Roxa e Outras Terras, A Revista
and Estética, plus essays written by
six experts: Gênese Andrade, Eucanaã
Ferraz, Antonio Arnoni, Ivan Marques,
Eduardo Coelho, and Júlio Castañon.
In a book published between 1834
and 1839, Debret accurately portrays
Brazilian life of the 19th century. In
this book he spent eight years writing,
describing his visit to Brazil with other
French artists who were brought to
Brazil by D. João VI in order to found
the Academy of Fine Arts in Rio de
Janeiro. Of all works written by visitors
to Brazil, Debret’s book is the most
celebrated. It contains about 150 handtinted drawings depicting topics such
as Indians and nature, slavery, Brazilian
urban scenes, and the courts.
Usually performed in bars and public
squares at the suburbs of São Paulo,
the “saraus” are organized around
different artistic languages, but
the focus is poetry. They show an
invigorating aspect of the city’s
culture among disadvantaged
people and at the same time, they
are an example of the transformation
that enables a new form of political
and social organization. This book
portrays the following “saraus”: Sarau
na Quebrada, Sarau Poesia na Brasa,
Cooperifa, Sarau Elo da Corrente, and
Sarau do Binho.
Mário de Andrade, a great Brazilian
intellectual, writer, pianist professor,
poet, was also a government employee.
He took part in the creation of the São
Paulo’s Department of Culture in 1935
when Fábio Prado was the city’s mayor.
Andrade was the first director of the
Department, firmly engaged in a popular
and democratic cultural program for
the state and even for the country. It
was a cultural project of international
exchange and integration with other
cultural expressions. This book gathers
the bureaucratic documents that he
drafted and shows his vigorous
opposition and a severe criticism
of standard bureaucrats.

It’s not easy to find children that
have never heard of the classic tales
from Andersen, the Grimm Brothers
and Perrault. Little Red Riding Hood,
Cinderella, Snow-White, The Ugly
Duckling, Hansel and Gretel, Sleeping
Beauty and other stories are artfully
“interpreted” through Mauricio de
Sousa’s characters. In 2012, this artwork
won a Bing Xin literature prize for
children’s work in China. These works
have also been launched separately.
The most internationally famous writer
from Brazil is, without a doubt, Paulo
Coelho. In 2004, Coelho, who is known
for writing for an adult audience,
selected 24 of his stories for Mauricio
de Sousa to illustrate, using characters
from Monica’s Gang. The stories were
then modified for a younger audience.
In a recent survey conducted in Brazil,
Coelho and Sousa were identified as
being in the top ten most admired
writers in the country.
From 1977 to 1982, Pelé, the most
famous soccer player of all time,
was a character in the comic book
world through Mauricio de Sousa’s
‘Pelezinho’ comic. The title was reissued in 2012. Other famous soccer
stars that have since then appeared
in Mauricio’s stories; Ronaldinho
Gaúcho and Neymar Jr.
Since 1970, the comic book Monica
has been published by Abril, Globo,
and Panini. It has become one of
the longest running comics in Brazil
(there exist more than 500 editions),
with continued excellent sales. The
character is such a success that she
has been named a UNICEF ambassador
(she is the only character to have such
an honor) for Culture and Tourism
in Brazil. Her comic book is also
published in English and Spanish.
In 2008, Mauricio de Sousa took
yet another bold step when he
launched a comic book with his
classic characters as adolescents
(15 years old), meshing his own
style with that of Japanese Manga.
It was a huge success! Monica Teen
has become the most-sold comic
book in Brazil in the last 30 years,
reaching impressive numbers,
such as 500,000 copies sold per
month. There are also English
and Spanish versions.
Graphic MSP is line of publication that
involves other Brazilian artists creating
storylines based on the classic characters
from Mauricio de Sousa. It is a widely
praised line with a target audience of
teens and adults. As of now there have
been seven albums published and is on
it’s seventh month of production.

Journalist and historian Marilu Torres
draws a panorama of the country’s
cultural and historical wealth reflected
in its religiosity through words, images,
and DVD. By approaching the religions
which compose the melting pot that
is the Brazilian faith, she presents the
life of Catholic saints (Portuguese
heritage), the origins of Umbanda
and Candomblé (African roots), and
the beliefs of our indigenous peoples.
The religious guide highlights religious
festivities and processions, faith
rituals and pilgrimage routes, along
with touching testimonials from
devotees on video.
First released 20 years ago, this special
edition of the best-seller The Curious
Reader’s Guide to Everything, which led
to a collection of nine books and two
other titles for children includes the
latest bizarre facts for the most curious
reader. This almanac features William
and Kate’s wedding, Pope Benedict
XVI’s resignation and the most recent
Oscar winners, along with other
unusual and fascinating information.
Enjoy every detail as if you had
experienced all these curious
moments yourself!
Journalist Mariana Ferrão, with the
help of dietitian Andreia Naves,
provides information on the properties
of natural fruit juices. She discusses
how to extract the best of every fruit
and explains concepts such as organic,
wholegrain and antioxidant options,
along with important issues related to
our wellbeing, such as the difference
between juices, nectar and juiced
waters. There are also more than 30
juice recipes made with traditional
Brazilian ingredients, such as watermelon
and lime, including some exotic
combinations, such as a mix of passion
fruit, mango and coconut – and all
healthy and delicious.
Created long ago and transmitted by
oral tradition, these 22 tales present a
Latin America where several peoples
and traditions were combined to
create a culture as rich as it is diverse.
Whether in the Andes mountain range
or in ancient lands in Central America,
we come across sleeping volcanos
and the villages of the Guarani people,
many times inhabited by fantasy
creatures, such as condors in love or
Aztec divinities. The book leads the
reader on a discovery of a unique
world, establishing contact with
many different and fascinating voices.
It also includes historical facts about
Latin America.

“marches”, traditional songs that are
elements in Brazil’s biggest party.
Little readers will learn more about
instruments such as surdo (large bass
drum) and agogô (double bells), how
to make music at home using simple
utensils and, naturally, they are invited
to take part in this big celebration. Get
your costume ready and let’s party at
the block! It’ll be lots of fun!

In the age of technology, Atropelos is a
work of art that reveals our difficulty in
communication, intra and interpersonal,
as well as the mismatch that it promotes,
trampling our highest aspirations, our
most simple desires, our sensitive
humanity that just wants to be happy.
So Marisa, who knows about the
intricacies of the human soul, tells
us with her experience and expertise
on what she has learned in living with
the secrets of human motivations
and aspirations, their weaknesses
and difficulties, as well as their
strengths, potentials, dreams and
abilities to overcome.
What can happen when the Alligator
decides to walk to work? The alligator
who was on foot can entertain and
teach. The author seeks to think
about a big question: urban mobility.
Richly illustrated.
Have you thought, at least once in
life, about leaving everything behind?
Have you ever been tempted to seek
the unknown? This was precisely what
happened to Joseph, a young shepherd
who was tired of the routine and
started an intense inner struggle. His
dilemma was between remaining in the
cave where he was living, just outside
the small town of Zoar, taking care of a
few sheep he had, or going in search of
his dream. The pastor of Zoar chose to
get away and plunged into a world full
of excitement and learning. Through
those experiences, he transforms the
world around him and realizes that
in this path of search he will find true
happiness. An inspiring story that will
surely encourage you to catch all of
your dreams.
A journey through Pedrinho’s worlds.
Yesterday, today and tomorrow, make
Pedrinho realize that there may be
good things in the three ot them, so he
decides to put together what is best of
each one of the three worlds to build
his own world.
How to achieve a harmony relationship
between disparate elements? Yellow
rhyme combines words, situations,
and environments in a playful way,
thus enriching the vocabulary and
enhancing the critical sense of children
in literacy phase. Richly illustrated, it
inebriates the senses and sharpens
the imagination.
In his book The totem of the Destitute,
Luis Carlos Bordoni introduces us to
numerous reflections that address
the human condition. It is interesting
the fact of sticking to the so-called
“helpless” to treat the condition that
embraces us all (humans). Always
involved in a battle to balance (not
just on the feet) this seesaw that the
world is; sometimes falling, sometimes
stepping, other times being crushed.
And life goes on! ...
Thus Man goes on limping trough the
undergrounds of injustice, disrespect,
indifference to his prime characteristic
of soul temporarily coated by a body
mass. Stumbling in the anguish of
his inexorable finitude, he discovers
a plausible way to grow and be
worth: spirituality. In ways as diverse
as humanity itself, transcendence
becomes a powerful truth.

A masterpiece of Brazilian gastronomy
history. It presents 130 selected
menus from the feasts and banquets
held by D. Pedro II and the royal
family, published together for the first
time. Taken from Thereza Christina’s
Collection, the menus are divided in
three sections: Brazilian Menus, Foreign
Menus, and Menus offered on ships.
It also presents several epoch recipes.
In some Brazilian regions, the manioc
flour – the most famous product
extracted from the root – is more
than a cooking ingredient. In the
state of Bahia, manioc flour involves a
whole set of practices and relationships
established through its production
and its uses. The economic, social, and
cultural aspects are presented in the
texts of this collection, diverse in their
approaches as in the very use of the
flour. The typical recipes are reunited
in this book, tempering the reading.
The recipes comprising the 15 menus
presented in this book were collected
all over Brazil, being respectfully
and sensibly reimagined by chef
Ana Luiza Trajano. The processes,
techniques, and richness of Brazilian
gastronomic culture are displayed
in beautiful imagery. The book also
contains an interesting and detailed
photographic glossary of ingredients,
as well as texts in English and French,
something that takes our habits and
traditions a step further.
For over 20 years, carnival producer
Milton Cunha has kept records of the
parades’ backstage, and now he has
decided to make his personal treasure
publicly available through this book.
From his newspaper clippings, he has
selected over 500 photographs that,
besides capturing the parades’ rave,
also show the work performed by
samba schools for more than 10
months before the parades took
place, demonstrating how parades
are designed, planned and performed,
how materials are reused, and how
the party creates job opportunities
for artisans.

Goodbyes are never easy. Just ask
Tom, who worked hard to keep his
cool when saying goodbye to his best
friend. It all happened so fast: he felt
something seize his throat, his stomach
churned, he got that icky taste in his
mouth. There went things and words
like “boat, “castle,” and the “pool”... Lucky
for him there are also more elastic
words, like “friendship” and “love,” and
different ways to express feelings. Tom
uses these to get through this and
other important separations in his life.
Where do stories dwell and how do
they move through different times and
spaces? In this book, three adolescents
travelling hear three different stories
in the oral tradition (one Buddhist,
one Arab and one Gypsy), retold
in an urban and contemporary
setting. Present since the very birth
of the civilization, they remain in the
imagination of those who hear them
and pass them on, helping to spread
different cultures.
Have you heard of the giraffe that eats
20 hours per day and sleeps standing
up? The one who could easily be the
daughter of a camel, leopard and a
ladder? Or that the letter “h” is the
giraffe of the alphabet? Father and
daughter love to talk about these
things when they visit the zoo every
Saturday just to see Theo. They don’t
even pay attention to the other
animals. Love invents its own language,
and the two express their love for one
another in “giraffe-speak.”
Some things make us mad, really
mad! It even feels like you are about
to explode inside. If people knew
what went on inside our heads when
that happens... Lucky for us, it doesn’t
last long. All you have to do is count
until 10 or 15 or 20... It really works! A
humorous look at all of those things
that drive us crazy!
How does Rita travel in her daydreams?
Does she float along the steam of a
teapot? Does she sweep through space
on a Zeppelin banana!? Does she cross
the sky on a balloon bicycle!? The very
creative Rita makes sure she doesn’t
stay rooted to the ground. Therefore,
she travels to many places, full of
flavors, textures and colors.
“B” is for ball, and it is shaped like a
boot; in the “E” for eagle you can see
an elephant; and the “H” for house
may serve as a hotel. In this fun
alphabet book, each letter leads to
a multicolored world. No matter
where a letter falls – either at the
beginning, the middle or the end
of a word, what matters is their
sounds and countless meanings.

OBALUAÊ
Author: Edsoleda Santos
ECLIPSE OF THE
BLUE MOON
Author: Ney Cayres
Author: João Bosco Quirelli
Chronicling the urban races he has
most enjoyed, Ney Cayres describes
each city’s architecture, literature,
food, and amusing incidents that
happened during the competitions,
historical events and technical details
of the development of the sport. This
book makes it clear that, far beyond
organizing marathons, cities offer a
variety of interesting situations for a
wide range of tastes, expectations and
curiosities, enriching and supporting
the maxim of the Baron de Coubertin,
founder of the modern Olympic
Games: “The important thing is not
winning, but taking part.”
A patchwork quilt of Bahian life.
Perhaps that is the best summary
of this romance. Zulmira is the face of
what it means to be from the state
of Bahia. People from Bahia transcend
the simple way of living just to live;
they pass through the rocks and
thorns of life without scratching
themselves; they radiate human
warmth and charm, despite all of life’s
everyday traps. Zulmira is charm and
magic, wisdom and joy, overflowing,
overcoming and transforming love.
The tale of the orixá Obaluaê,
researched in Africa by the ethnologist
Pierre Verger, tells the story of his arrival
and the development of his cult in
the Mahi territory in Dahomey. This
tale was chosen as the inspiration of
this book by the artist Edsoleda Santos,
as a tribute to the “Velho” (old man) as
he is affectionately called in Bahia, an
orixá of a particular cult, surrounded by
mysteries and secrets. We learn in this
story that under his straw exterior is the
secret of his light; of life and death; of
good and evil. Atotô!
Archeologist John Crane is a specialist
in the history of ancient civilizations
who is always going off on expeditions
around the world. After the death of
his wife, he decides to move to Rio de
Janeiro along with his daughter, Holly,
to be closer to their friends Dr. Ramos,
his wife, Dr. Rita, and their daughter,
Maiara. Just before her 18th birthday,
Holly receives an artifact and tries to
unravel the mysteries surrounding her
father’s disappearance, Maiara’s visions,
and the growing imbalance in Nature.
In this adventure, Holly and her friend
Maiara meet Celino and Kami, beings
from other worlds, and embark on a
journey in which the basic values of
humanity will be put to the test.

Author: Débora Knittel

Despite being in love, Holly and Celino
must learn to deal with differences
between their own worlds. After all,
she is human and he is... an angel.
While looking for belongings left by
John at the Museum of Quinta da Boa
Vista, Holly meets Pedro, an attractive
archeology student. This meeting
rekindles Holly’s desire to make a
trip she had planned with John,
her deceased father whom she loved
so much. In this story, love, loyalty,
desire and betrayal intertwine,
awakening feelings that can either
open or heal untouched wounds.
Each must make their own choice
and evil can be anywhere… So be
careful not to wake it.
