It continues to attract publishers, experts and authors from all over the world, showing the vitality of this sector in spite of the global financial crisis that has brought instability to the economies all over the world and the explosion in the use of electronic media among the youth. In Brazil, the economic measures taken by the government, giving continuation to a policy started in the 90s, managed to maintain the financial stability of the country while minimizing the impacts of the global crisis in the domestic market.According to the Brazilian publishers, 2009 was a very good year for the publishing in-dustry. It also reflects the efforts that the civil society and governments, in Brazil, are doing in order to assure education to all children and young people in the country. By the end of the year, we had another victory: a new law set the compulsory school from age 4 to 17, rather than from age 7 to 14. The compulsory school raised from 8 years to 14 years. Parents have a duty to make sure that their child receives edu-cation during the compulsory school age years. The demand for books in Brazil increased due to the economical stability, which increased the investments on education as well as the larger number of students in schools. The demand for computers, which also require more reading, has also increased. Thus, the importance of the written culture was strengthened. Fundação Nacional do Livro Infantil e Juve-nil, Brazilian section of the International Board on Books for Young People/IBBY, since 1968, develops its reading promotion action through quality books. One must have access to quality books and live surrounded by books and stories since childhood and must continue to read good books over his/her own life, in order to be Foreworda good reader and a critical and creative reader.Despite the improvement of the living conditions of the population and the social achievements in Brazil, there is still a long way to ensure Children’s Rights to all Brazilian children and youth. This is the basic condition for quality education and as such a Universal Right that must be defended with emphasis.FNLIJ’s book selection is based on one of IBBY’s pillars: quality books. Since its early years FNLIJ gives annual awards to the best books in 18 categories. Started in 1974, the Prêmio FNLIJ (FNLIJ Award) has helped, since then, establishing a national benchmark on the quality of the books to be offered to children. The idea of quality books has permeated the Brazilian government book purchases. We can say that nowadays most public schools have good quality book collections available to students.The Brazilian book production is interna-tionally recognized. Two Brazilian writers: Lygia Bojunga, in 1982 and Ana Maria Machado, in 2000, received IBBY Hans Christian Ander-sen Award. In 2008, Bartolomeu Campos de Queirós, also received an international recogni-tion with the award Premio Ibericoamericano de Literatura Infantil y Juvenil Ediciones SM. Besides them, other authors such as Marilda Castanho, Marina Colasanti, Nelson Cruz, Angela Lago, Roger Mello, Ruth Rocha and Ziraldo, also have their books translated into different languages.FNLIJ also develops a pioneer work investing in courses and seminars on training literature reading for teachers and librarians. Many professionals and institutions interested and concerned over the reading issue multiplied these courses throughout the country. Nowadays Salão FNLIJ do Livro para Crianças e Jovens (FNLIJ Children’s Book Fair) puts together this set of principles in a single event. 5Created in 1999, it lasts for 12 days and is totally devoted to books and reading. More than 70 children’s book publishers and more than 100 authors (writers and illustrators) present their books to children and young people from public and private schools, in Rio de Janeiro and neighboring cities. The children arrive in buses brought by their teachers. Textbooks, religious, self-help or reference books are not displayed in Salão. Only literature and non-fiction books are displayed and sold. The first day of Salão FNLIJ is totally dedicated to teachers who are guided throughout the Salão by FNLIJ’s teachers to visit the publishers’ booths.The children meet the authors and illustra-tors in a space dedicated to it: “Espaço FNLIJ de Leitura” (Reading Space) and at the different libraries (for children, adolescents and educa-tors) organized in the Salão. It is a unique event in the country and we hope that all those inter-ested in reading promotion can follow the same direction.FNLIJ Seminar on Literature for Children and Young People is a parallel activity to the Salão. Besides Brazilian literature, experts and authors from the invited country participate in the seminar presenting their books and illustrations. One day is dedicated to meet the Brazilian Indigenous writers who, in 2010, will meet for the 7th time under the leadership of Daniel Munduruku, who has been awarded with the Honorable Mention of the UNESCO Prize for Children and Young People’s Literature in the Service of Tolerance in 2003. With the support of an NGO, the Ecofuturo Institute, created in 1999, through an initiative of Suzano Paper Company, FNLIJ is responsible for setting up Community Libraries in areas without access to quality books and with shortageText and illustrations by Ziraldo.

FNLIJ is aloso responsible for setting up the library methodology with courses on Reading promoter and Library assis-tant in addition to selecting the book collection.In July 2009 it was launched in Brazil the Movimento Brasil Literário (Movement for a Literary Brazil) organized by C&A Institute, from C&A store, the Ecofuturo Institute, Casa Azul (Paraty Literary Festival) and Luis Freire Center for Culture, together with FNLIJ. This Movimento was launched by a Manifest, written by the author Bartolomeu Campos de Queirós. The site www.brasilliterario.org.br, presents the Manifest in English and Spanish. There are several new actions being organized in order to take the proposal on reading literature all over Brazil. Each day more people are joining the Movimento. We recognize that this is an auda-cious proposal for a country with great challeng-es to face. But we are convinced of its relevance. A quality education begins in the family, through the experience with reading literature books, and should continue in school among teachers and friends. We cannot wait any more to raise the literature flag. Access to literature is a right that must be assured to all as it contributes to the understanding among peoples and to peace, as believed Jella Lepman, the founder of IBBY.The book selection prepared each year to the Bologna Book Fair, organized in catalogs, like this one you have in your hands, reflects our mission and a little of our work.We hope that you will enjoy this selection of books published in Brazil in 2009 as well as the topics in focus. We also hope that you will look for/read here our artists’ constant search for originality. Freedom of expression is inherent in the work art and the Brazilian authors reject authoritarianism and what is presented as ordinary.We conclude this presentation, declaring our pride and admiration to the Brazilian children and young people’s literature authors and their publishers for their contribution to the education of the Brazilian children and youth through their books and we long to share their books with children and young people from other countries.6Fundação Nacional do Livro Infantil e Juvenil – FNLIJ, Brazilian section of IBBY presents the winners of the FNLIJ Award 2009.

ISBN 8586218162ILLuStRatoRFive of the most important titles by the candidate10Four decades ago, five authors wrote their first stories for children, and thus ushered a new phase for children and young people’s literature in Brazil, which has been bearing fruit to date. Editorial growth in this segment has been such that 424 titles were published in 1974 whereas 4,957 titles were published in 2008, according to a study commissioned by the Brazilian Chamber of Books to São Paulo University’s Economic Research Institute Foundation (FIPE/USP).All along the 1970’s, as these authors consolidated their careers and new ones came into the scene, a road was paved for initially national and then international recognition of Brazilian writers and illustrators and the quality, as well as the originality, of their work.Ana Maria Machado, Joel Rufino dos Santos, João Carlos Marinho, Ruth Rocha, and Ziraldo were the 5 stars who shone in Brazilian skies back in 1969. They were then the pioneers of what would become, later in the 1980’s, the children and young people’s literature boom in Brazil, with IBBY Hans Christian Andersen prize being awarded to Lygia Bojunga in 1982 and the Ciranda de Livros being developed by FNLIJ in the same year, which inaugurated the distribution of literature books in Brazilian public schools and also inspired the government to create the Reading Room Project for the purpose of procuring those books. In 1969, during the military dictatorship, the year when the first man stepped on the moon and the first color TV broadcast was made in Brazil, Ziraldo`s Flicts books and João Carlos Marinho`s O Gênio do Crime came into existence, in addition to the early children and young people’s texts by Ruth Rocha, Ana Maria Machado, and Joel Rufino dos Santos, in Revista Recreio. These accomplished writers have, after Monteiro Lobato, managed to creatively enhance the imagination of children and youth.Four decades ago, five stars were born in the realm of Brazilian Children and Young People’s Literature1969 – a milestone in Brazil’s Children and Young People’s Literature11Recreio MagazineRecreio, a weekly magazine published with the purpose of entertaining and educating children and pre-adolescents, was launched in 1969. In its first phase (1969 and 1970), every new issue contained a different story.Ruth Rocha participated in the creation of Abril publishers’ Recreio magazine, where she had her early stories published as of 1969. Romeu e Julieta, Meu Amigo Ventinho, Catapimba e Sua Turma, O Dono da Bola, Teresinha e Gabriela are among her first fictional works.Still with the Abril publishers, she was an editor and writer for the Children-Youth Books Division, which she also chaired for quite some time. It was on the pages of Recreio that Ruth Rocha created the story Marcelo, Martelo, Marmelo, which became a great editorial phenomenon in the country. Ruth was nominated for IBBY Hans Christian Andersen Award in 2002 and currently has more than 130 titles published and translated into 25 languages worldwide. In Brazil, her work is currently published by the Salamandra publishing house.Ana Maria Machado started to write children’s stories upon an invitation made by Ruth Rocha for publication in the Recreio magazine, in 1969. As of 1976, many of those stories became books, the first of which was Bento-que-bento-é-o-frade, with stunning success that led to many other books and awards.In 2000, Ana was the winner of the world’s top children and young people’s literature prize, IBBY Hans Christian Andersen Award. And she was elected for the Brazilian Academy of Letters in 2003, when, for the first time, an author with a significant work for the younger public had been Ruth RoChaJoEL RuFINo DoS SaNtoSaNa MaRIa MaChaoDoJ. CaRLoS MaRINhozIRaLDo12nominated. She currently has over 200 books published and translated in 17 countries.As he was also invited to write for the Recreio magazine, Joel Rufino dos Santos brought back all the stories his granny used to tell him: tales of the curupira, the werewolf, the band of Lampião, boitatás and a number of other Brazilian folk stories. He was nominated for IBBY Hans Christian Andersen Award in 2004 and 2006, and ranked among the five finalists.Joel currently has dozens of books published for children as well as for adults. With Ana Maria Machado’s, Ruth Rocha’s, and Joel Rufino dos Santos’s stories, Recreio introduced the innovative concept of a “toy-magazine”, one in which readers read and paint, cut and play.Maria Lucia Machens, a university professor in the area of Portuguese/English and Literatures, offered her master’s dissertation on Disruption and Subversion in Children’s Literature, which has just been published by the Global publishers, in the wake of Recreio. According to the author, the scope of children’s and youth literature in Brazil used to be too narrow: A fantástica máquina dos bichos Salamandra.ISBN 9788516063139Quando eu comecei a crescerSalamandra.ISBN 9788516063191Mil pássaros pelos céusSalamandra.ISBN 978851606302313conformism, obedience, an excessively well-behaving role model for children, and overvalued submission to authority were the overarching themes. “The magazine launched authors whose texts were liberating, and it brought about great advancement as it introduced rather uncommon activities for the time,” says Machens.Initially, the magazine was a fortnightly publication. Due to overwhelming success, it soon became a weekly publication. In the first phase, from 1969 to 1970, it used to sell 250,000 copies every week. At the peak of success, it was also published in Argentina, Spain, Italy, and Portugal. The stories revolved around factual themes of those days that led to thinking and challenging. “Readers were like accomplices; they would relate to it as it respected their intelligence,” professor Machens explains.Revista Recreio’s stunning success with children as well as parents and teachers started the publishers’ interest in publishing children’s literature books. From then on, some authors were invited to write for children young people in general, thus creating a new editorial segment, which has experienced constant growth over the years.Na rota dos tubarõesPallas.

This work is differentiated by modern, daring graphic design, and thus becomes a milestone for children’s literature in Brazil. Flicts tells the story of a color that could not find its place on earth. In the midst of solitude, the character decides to flee and ends up on the moon, where it finds a satellite of its own color. The story has just been put into a Japanese version by the Ofusha publishers.Vânia Maria Resende, an educator holding a São Paulo University PhD degree on Comparative Studies of Literatures in the Portuguese Language, has underlined that Ziraldo’s book release was an important moment in children’s and youth literature in the country as it brought together elements that were not limited to the classical notion of literature but rather included multiple visual contexts, in addition to the linguistic sense. “Flicts is the result of a new concept of book/literature, where the visual aspect is highlighted and new avenues are open to readers. This is what we classify as simultaneist literature,” Vânia Maria explains.In the wake of Flicts, a more professional view of illustrators came into existence and publishers started to take an interest in books as works of art. “To make it to the market, Flicts relied on the support from a revolutionary publisher who decided to launch a book of exceptional visual and graphic quality,” she said. Vânia also underlined the importance of the verbal-graphic-visual style that was started with that book: “The breadth of Ziraldo’s language mixes visual and verbal aspects and takes on a universal symbolic dimension which allows for different reading perspectives. Ziraldo draws as he writes and writes as he draws.”Elements of transformation and overcoming can be found in there that will facilitate reading the social context in which the book was written: “During the military dictatorship, Flicts would have represented the struggle between luminosity and obscurantism. The special color fought to be relieved from the oppression by the other colors,” she analyses.FlictsMelhoramentos.ISBN 9788506059241O menino maluquinhoMelhoramentos.ISBN 9788506055106Menina NinaMelhoramentos.ISBN 9788506053942Crime GeniusO Gênio do Crime (subtitle: Uma História em São Paulo) is João Carlos Marinho’s first book and has been a best seller for 40 years (over 1 million copies sold in 62 editions) and is a key reference in Brazilian children’s and youth literature. Launched in 1969 by Brasiliense Publishing House, after having been in the hands of other publishers, it was incorporated to the catalog of Global, which has published most of its current 62 editions. In 2006, it was published in Spanish under the title El Génio del Crímen. In 1973, it was adapted to the movies by director Tito Teijido, under the title O Detetive Bolacha Contra o Gênio do Crime.Writer Laura Sandroni, herself a children’s and youth literature expert, reports that the book started to be written in the latter half of 1965, when Marinho, then an accomplished lawyer in the city of Guarulhos, state of São Paulo, decided to dedicate his mornings to children’s literature. The author disclosed how the story about a group of young soccer sticker collectors who became detectives and started to investigate the factory that was faking the stickers was created. Marinho recalls that he suddenly went “blank” and shelved the project for nearly a year. In January 1967, during his vacations, he had an insight to continue the story. Upon completion, he took the book to Brasiliense’s editor Caio Graco for publication in 1969. The title would have been, initially, O Crime das Figurinhas. “But that title was not expressive; it had no nature of its own; it was mediocre,” he said. And only in the eve of launching the book did the author have the idea of baptizing it O Gênio do Crime.Laura Sandroni reiterated the book’s historical milestone within the context of children and young people’s literature renovation which, up until then, was only assessed by the parameters laid out by Monteiro Lobato’s work.O gênio do crime Global.ISBN 8526010476Sangue frescoGlobal.ISBN 8526003070O caneco de prataGlobal.
