The second volume of the series comes packed with more adventures and characters. For starters, Pete, Retroussy, Emily, Viscount and Notail throw a party and the guests are those from World Wonders and Mythology. Following that, the yellowwoodpeckers discover the virtuous Johnny Make-Believe, build the successful Little Horseley Circus Company from scratch and meet the intrepid invisible boy Feather Fellow who takes them on a trip to Fables Country, where they meet the fabulists La Fontaine and Aesop. They even manage to take part in some fables and bring back home their new animal friend, Talking Mule. To top it off they take their grandma on a trip to an exotic African desert where they get an unexpected encounter with the mighty Roc Bird and get saved by none less than lying artist Baron Munchausen himself. In 'The 7 League Boots', bonus short story also by Monteiro Lobato, we see Hop-o'-My-Thumb struggling in the city with a 'delaying boot' and finding his solution at the Yellow Woodpecker Grange with Emily. MONTEIRO LOBATO (São Paulo, Brazil, 18 April 1882 - 04 July 1948) was South America's pioneer in the genre Children's Literature as well as the founder of the first publishing house in the continent. Notably, he translated from the English and self-published Lewis Carroll's Alice's Adventures in Wonderland and JM Barrie's Peter Pan; or, The Boy Who Would Not Grow Up. His fantasy books featuring the YELLOW WOODPECKER GRANGE characters have been adapted to cinema, TV series, comic books, theatre, music and TV cartoons across the decades. Monteiro Lobato has influenced many generations of writers and his characters are still the most recognisable in national culture.
