Summary:
"Uma peneira, um caixote e duas latas de goiabada: quem seria capaz de construir um mundo a partir desses objetos? Duas crianças, duas histórias e muita fantasia farão desses objetos aparentemente despropositados personagens de um mundo mágico e, ao mesmo tempo, profundamente real. É Manoel de Barros, no seu melor estilo, extraindo poesia daquilo que é supostamente vazio; compondo os seur "milagres estéticos" com o carinho de quem pinta uma obra de arte: bordando a palavra com a mesma devoção com que a família Diniz
Dumont
elabora as imagens do livro. Através de duas histórias - O menino que carregava áqua na peneira e A menina avoaca -, eles mergulham no imaginário infantil e nos revelam toda a poesia e o Lirismo que estão por trás daquilo que os adultos costumam chamar de ingenuidade. Exercícios de ser criança é uma obra que fala direto ao coração da criança e da criança que há dentro de cada um de nós."
A sieve, a crate and two cans of guava: who would be able to build a world from these objects? Two children, two stories and lots of fantasy make these objects seemingly unreasonable characters from a magical and at the same time deeply real world. It is Manoel de Barros, in his best style, extracting poetry from what is supposedly empty; Composing his seur "aesthetic miracles" with the affection of those who paint a work of art: embroidering the word with the same devotion with which the Diniz
Dumont
family elaborates the images of the book. Through two stories - The Boy Who Carried Water on the Sieve and The Flying Girl - they immerse themselves in the children's imagination and reveal to us all the poetry and lyricism that lie behind what adults often call naive. Exercising to be a child is a work that speaks directly to the heart of the child and the child within each one of us. "
