O Menino Maluquinho

Ziraldo Alves Pinto/O Menino Maluquinho PB [2008,92nd Ed,109pp]

This book has been around for over 25 years. It's a classic of Brazilian Children's Literature--the story of a Dennis-the-Menace type of boy, who is the smallest, most artistic, most creative kid in his "turma." His soccer team is always happy when he shows up, because he's willing to be the goalie! He makes a mess at home, but his noisy happiness is contagious.

Beautifully illustrated, and good for older kids, young adults, and Portuguese students because it presents a lot of great Portuguese sayings, like "abraçar o mundo com as pernas" and "pe de vento."




Na obra infantil, verso e desenho contam a história de um menino traquinas que aprontava muita confusão. Alegria da casa, liderava a garotada, era sabido e um amigão. Fazia versinhos, canções, inventava brincadeiras.Tirava dez em todas as matérias, mas era zero em comportamento. Menino maluquinho, diziam. Mas na verdade ele era um menino feliz.

Customer Reviews:

Ziraldo's "O Menino Maluquinho" is still one of my favorite books. I learned "ele tinha fogo no rabo" and "macacos no
sótão" from Ziraldo's O Menino Maluquinho.
