Tales of Giants from Brazil

In a world where rivers sparkle like moonlit glass and giants shape the very landscape, this collection invites listeners into Brazil’s most enchanting folklore. The opening tale introduces a Moon Giant who builds a palace of mother‑of‑pearl for his beloved river giantess, and their daughter—destined to become the Princess of the Springs—grows up surrounded by shimmering waters, loyal love, and a chorus of suitors.

As the princess matures, the stories weave together themes of devotion, courage, and the delicate balance between personal desire and familial duty. Each narrative, from mischievous violinists to clever cats, captures the lush imagination of Brazilian oral tradition, enriched by vivid illustrations that bring the giants’ towering world to life.

Listeners will be carried along winding rivers and towering forests, discovering how ancient Portuguese tales have transformed into uniquely Brazilian legends, all while feeling the heartbeat of a culture that celebrates the extraordinary in the everyday.
