From Brazil came an original proposal from the writer-illustrator André Neves: Maroca e Deolindo.
The book from the Pauline publishing house was chosen for the White Ravens 2012 catalog, which has the sole purpose of indicating children’s books that deserve worldwide attention on account of their universal themes and their unique and innovative style.
Maroca e Deoloindo, which will be launched at the Bologna/Italy Book Fair, is a beautiful journey through the Brazil’s calendar of feast-days and cultural or popular customs. It is painted with brush-strokes of love in a world that is ready to be discovered.
