Unravel the illusion: which direction is this circle moving?
O Menino Maluquinho was also born in October, but in book form. It quickly became a bestseller in the 1980s. The numbers indicate that more than four million copies were sold.
This boy who has “the eye is bigger than his belly, fire in his tail, wind in his feet and huge legs” and who is always wearing a pot on his head, has been read and reread for four decades. The work has already won two adaptations for the big screen, a series live action, musicals, theater shows and even other books.
This past Wednesday, right during Children's Day, another product of this huge franchise arrived on the Netflix streaming platform, the animated series “O Menino Maluquinho”.
A curiosity is that this is his first national animated series.
The work has short episodes of up to 12 minutes, something similar to skits. In this series, the boy is updated to the current years. The boy's parents are now newly separated and, with that, he will live in another city. Now the boy will live divided between his mother's house and his father's house, as well as entering a new school. From that, trying to fit in, he quickly manages to make new friends: Bocão and Julieta.
