A peleja de Chapeuzinho Vermelho com o lobo mau e O coelho e o jabuti, dois livros que fiz em parceria com Jô Oliveira para editora Globo foram selecionados para o catálogo da feira de livros infanto-juvenis mais importante do planeta, a “Bologna Children’s Book Fair”, na Itália. É a segunda vez que um trabalho de minha autoria é incluído nesse importante catálogo, produzido pela FNLIJ (Fundação Nacional do Livro Infantil e Juvenil). A primeira vez foi com o livro “Padre Cícero, o santo do povo”, da Editora Demócrito Rocha, ilustrado por João Pedro do Juazeiro e Arlene Holanda. O catálogo traz textos em inglês e está disponível no formato PDF no site da FNLIJ - http://www.fnlij.org.br/
O coelho e o jabuti
Arievaldo Viana. Illustrations by Jô Oliveira. Globo.
(unpaged) ISBN 9788525050595
Many popular tales boast rabbit and tortoise as main characters. The rabbit is smart and fast; the tortoise is renowned for being lazy and slow. In this cordel tale/poem, we will find both animals racing each other. The bet indicated that the rabbit would win, but the tortoise resorted to a scheme to defeat the enemy and, to everybody’s surprise, eventually wins. The story is told in verse and includes well-colored naïf style illustrations by Jô Oliveira. Like in all cordel stories, the conclusion includes a role model lesson: you should never underestimate the other; each individual has his/her own talent. That is a valid lesson for human beings as well. (NMS)

The classical Grimm’s story, so much visited and revisited by contemporary authors, with its values and revisited characters, repaginated, deconstructed, now appears in a cordel version. It is now recounted by Viana, in order to preserve the original tale, whose innovation deals with the language, and it is beautifully illustrated by Jô de Oliveira. At the end, Arievaldo adds a little version where the wolf is cheated out by the Lilttle Red Riding Hood’s grandmother and dies before he can cause any damage. The author, however, decides he cannot do without the final Charles Perrault’s admonishing verses. (SC)
