Brazilian Mythology is an amazing land to children's imagination. I remember a book that I had when I was a child named "Folclore brasileiro". What a great book, filled of the most interesting chacaracters, some of those, Saci Pererê, Mula sem-cabeça, Lobisomem, etc. Storys from those brazilian legends were filled of suspense and I've ever been attracted for those lines. My favorite is Saci Perere who has only one leg and wear a red cap called " carapuça". He is very smart and always prank to the people. There are also many books of Monteiro Lobato, that wrote brazilian folclore for chilren, if you could, check it out!
