Espantaxim Project
The Espantaxim Project is based on the literary musical work “Espantaxim and the Magic Little Castle”, by Dulce Auriemo, and offers a contribution to children’s musical literature in Brazil. The goal is to awaken in children an interest in music, in learning music, literature and reading early on, as well as to promote ethical values, good habits, the conservation of nature and the environment, and a culture of peace. It offers a new story for the children’s universe, songs with Brazilian rhythms and 18 lovable characters.
With the development of the Espantaxim Project, new books, songs and characters came along, especially dedicated to children who are in the process of discovering the universe around them.
Publishing House
