The extent and the after effects of the warlike conquests are recalled to mind by this book - a successful mixture of historic-geographical portrayal and adventure stories. Attractive drawings of the kinds of ships in vogue at the time, the equipment, maps etc. as well as a chronology of Portuguese history between 1293 and 1495 round out the picture.

In apartment after apartment the sisters Alice and Margarida and their friend Carolina conquer new expanses of adventure, What began as an entertaining game, however, becomes a fearful and lonely ordeal as they realize that they have also overthrown their real world with their magic spell. They find the way back home only after they make a detour to the Iast apartment which has retained its non-magical quality. - The author presents imaginative and everyday worlds, each with its own characteristics, and joins them by making use of all the rules of literary style and childhood experience.

However, no one recognizes the long-haired boy in school, his parents shut the door in the face of the bearded young man. The antidote which he drinks with his last breath naturally has fatal consequences as well. In brief, staccato-like sentences, the story is consistently propelled forwards and/or backwards. The moral of the story &quot;the person who is in a hurry to grow up takes twice as long in the end” cannot be questioned in this story. The unattractive colored pencil drawings expound the text only superficially; however, they do take away something of its inexorable repercussions.

When the friend of his over- worked mother sends Miguel out on the street to sell his first, still unfinished picture in order to make money, he obeys him. Miguel succeeds in selling his picture for a high price. But when the mother, made happy by the money, encourages him to make more pictures to sell, something in him threatens to break. When the mother suddenly recognizes the pain her child suffers and attends to him, the effect is redeeming for both protagonists and reader. The mood of each chapter is suggested by the use of matted or bright colors.

[36] p.<br> ISBN 972-36-0338-1<br><i>Chicken - Egg - Nature - Difference - Friendship</i><br>A chicken escapes into the woods one day and is greatly surprised one day to find several peculiar eggs in her nest. But she broods over them all and one by one the new &quot;children&quot; are hatched: a crocodile, an ostrich, a parrot, and a snake. Though due to their own respective characteristics this brood is not exactly easy to care for, she raises them with loving care. This proves to be a blessing when her own little chick gets into danger. Told in simple words, this text makes an ingenious case for respecting differences between living creatures, as well as for friendship and helpfulness. The idea of colorful diversity is given expression in the lively, colored illustrations.

Lyrical stories like the fairy tale of the merchant who sells sparkling water drops, colored grains of sand and other seemingly useless &quot;goods&quot;; or amazing stories like the tale of the bicycle rider who went for a ride in the sky one day. The narrative structure and language of this prose are striking for sim- plicity and clarity, creating a particularly fascinating contrast to the unusual, some- times enigmatic content. Each story is intro- duced with an illustration: pastel-colored, equally enigmatic pictures with surrealistic elements done in a mixed technique of wa- ter-color and line drawing. This book is part of a new series which includes both traditional and newer fairy tales and stories, all (re-) told by António Torrado. Each volume is illustrated by several, in part very well-known Portuguese illustrators.

Similarly, Manuela Bacelar's double-paged illustrations achieve their full effect above all through the use of color and form. She captures the atmosphere of this tale with a wide range of green, blue and grey tones, soft lines, vague contours. And her pictures reflect the basically melancholy mood the dimly lit underwater world and the sombre seascape and coastal landscape.

She becomes inventive and sets everything in motion in order to conjure up a set of wings to solve her problem. But her efforts are in vain and so she has to set off for the Witch Congress by foot. To everyone's surprise, she is quite thin when she finally arrives there two years later. With humor and imagination this book describes the »daily life« of witches, which is full of exotic and bizarre problems from the point of view of any non-witch. The text is accompanied by full-paged, expressive illustrations (water color and line drawings) in broken blue and brown tones.

[88] p.<br> ISBN 972-43-0264-4<br><i>LaFontaine, Jean de - Fables</i><br>This collection of 20 fables from Jean de La Fontaine includes such well-known favorites as »The Lion and the Mouse« and the »Hare and the Tortoise.« For each fable there is a full-paged (landscape format) color illustration by António Modesto, which portrays in general only the main characters. They are the focus of the artist, free against a colored background, with additional details only sporadically hinted at. The occasional landscape illustrations stand out with their organic, flowing and expressive forms. There is a conspicuous contrast between the predominant pastel tones in many pictures and the luminous shades of blue and green in others. Often the artist portrays the protagonists as if using a zoom lens, bringing them in so close that only a segment can be seen. Among the wide range of perspectives, one sees the chattering raven in the tree, while the reed is seen looking up at the mighty oak. The illustrations of the beautiful, meticulously designed book, which is bound in carmine red linen, bear a resemblance to the pictures of the Italian artist Lorenzo Mattotti.

He returns to his village and ultimately moves into a nearby retirement home. The decision is accompanied with tears, feelings of guilt and a portion of resignation, which everyone involved learns to live with. From the point of view of the grandchild, related with laconic, dry humor, António Mota gives us sure fire, realistic descriptions that do not avoid the unpleasant parts of growing old. This excellent tale treats old age with great respect and loving kindness, without drifting off into cheap show of emotion.

At first she (and reader) suspect that she could be pregnant, but instead the diagnosis turns out to be diabetes. This novel describes how Loló, her family and her boyfriend learn to deal with the news and adjust to the chronic illness. The well-structured, unspectacular narrative takes the various perspectives of the main characters. The author, highly successful in Portugal, is able to deal with the topic of illness in children and young adults in a natural and uninhibited manner.

It is a summer full of surprises and major changes, both in the family and in the village, and ends with David leaving his home to earn his living in the big city of Porto. In his realistic but at the same time reticent, reserved style the author describes traditional rural life and its gradual but unstoppable decay. There is a lightly melancholic tone in the narrative yet it is free of any bitterness and nostalgic overtones.

Mina is also seeking a way to solve the mystery of her own family secret - a supposedly nobleborn grandmother. Once again, Alice Vieira focuses in this new story on one of her favorite topics: the history and the problems of a family and the place that each individual has within it. Again, she delivers most convincing psychological character portraits. In short flights of parody a mirror is held up to modern day social phenomena.

The book – printed on high-quality paper and in landscape format – is well designed and makes a generous impression, because there is plenty of ample space for the text and illustrations to unfold. The colourful illustrations are characterised by soft, flowing lines and bleeding shapes, animating the pictures with movement and lightness.

Ana Saldanha explores this cave, these images, events and feelings and weaves them together with other people's memories to create rich textures of poetic prose. This fine, timeless narrative about a child's everyday experiences and emotions is characterised by a sometimes wistful yet never sentimental tone. The story of the two girls Isabel and Joana has an exemplary status, and – as the author assures – all similarities with other childhoods are an »intended coincidence «.

Known as the country of seafarers, explorers, conquerors and fishermen for centuries, this historical legacy is alive in people's conscience and everday life, in Portuguese culture, economy or the cuisine up to the present day. It is hardly surprising, therefore, that the sea plays an important role in literature, both of oral and written tradition. This inspiring book, accompanied by many colour-illustrations, unites many of those texts: rhymes, riddles, sayings, folksongs, fairy tales and sagas give an impression of the diversity of the sea.

[28] p.<br> ISBN 972-21-1415-8<br><i>Cat – Night – Imagination – Disobedience</i><br>The fur of Pintalgato, a young, tigered tomcat, changes over night into a black coat darker than the gloomiest night. His curiosity is responsible for this transformation; why had he ignored his mother's warning to get nowhere near the »light that leads to the other side« on his nightly roams? The encounter with the darkness has made him dark, too. In the end, it becomes clear that darkness – the realm to which we attribute our fears – needs the same amount of loving attention as Pintalgato receives from his mother. With the poetic, symbolic text of this colourfully illustrated book, the wellknown author from Mozambique enters the stage of children's literature.

To familiarise children with this chapter of contemporary history, the author and illustrator have chosen the classical genre of the picture book. The sparse, simple text relates the facts in a calm tone not unlike that of fairytales or legends. This creates a special tension, which can also be sensed in the relations between text and image. The large-format pictures in warm colours show details with symbolic connotations. They seem strangely motionless and thus gain an emblematic character. A fascinating, very unusual book.

The editor has taken great care in her selection of examples ranging from the 13century to contemporary literature, from King Dinis to the Nobel laureate José Saramago. The texts come from a variety of genres: songs, poems, fairytales, short stories, drama etc. Small text boxes give additional information about the authors. A special note is added by the striking illustrations in vivd colours. The artist, born in Nicaragua, interprets the ‘venerate’ texts in a refreshing, dynamic, and highly modern way.

Caminho, 2002. 34 p.<br> ISBN 972-21-1505-7<br><i>Christmas – Santa Claus</i><br>With this book, Alice Vieira, the grande dame of Portuguese children’s and young adult literature, proves once more her fine mastery of the art of narration. With wonderful ease and a refreshing breeze of wit, she presents two modern Christmas stories. The first one lets parents and daughter switch roles to pose the problem of Santa’s existence from a different angle. In the second story, Santa Claus is simply overwhelmed and exhausted by the ever more demanding wish-lists coming from the children. João Caetanos’s lively mixedmedia illustrations playfully capture the humorous tone of the texts.
