Colección Carambola
This new title from the Carambola Collection is a very personal vision of an universal literature classic. Even more surreal, if possible, than the original, this book is full of fantasy, humour and endless bragging as it could not be otherwise if the one who tells us this story is the wacky baron.

THE NOTEBOOK OF MOONS Plot: This notebooks contain letters, numbers, words, stories, tales... dreams.... To enter the treasures they keep, one must open and enter them. That is the only way we can discover how to catch witches with the help of a magical formula or encounter the different faces of the Moon - because the satellite of the earth doesn’t always have the same face. Take a good look! Authors: Maria Canosa (Cee, A Coruña, Spain 1978) is a structural engineer. She won awards for her early teenage works, standing out especially for her Galician children’s literature and poetry. Since this early success, Canosa has developed a successful career as a writer, lecturer, TV host... Dani Padrón (Ourense, Spain 1983) studied architecture in A Coruña. He came to illustration through caricatures and cartoons after he was highly commended in the 9th Galician Competition of Junior Caricatures (Ourense, 2009), also winning second prize in the 14th Comic Event in Cangas (Pontevedra, Spain) in 2010. He began his career as a children’s illustrator in 2011, when he won the Pura Dora Vázquez Award. Since then he has published several books.

DOMINGO Plot: Domingos is, in short, a reflexion about the current relationship between man and nature. It is a retrospective of how we treat what we have inherited: all those things that our ancestors left us. And at the same time it is a metaphor of the increasing lack of the relationship between parents and their children. This tale uses a boy’s point of view to demonstrate these contradictions since he has an uncontaminated way of looking around him. Kids are in that sense the opposite of society. That is why we adults often need them to open our eyes. Author: El primo Ramón is a creature with two heads: Borja López Cotelo (A Coruña, 1980) is an architect and doctor in graphical expression, and María Olmo Béjar (A Coruña, 1980), who is also an architect. From 2009 to 2013, they were in charge of the graphic art in Pecha Kucha conferences. In addition, they have published their vignettes and illustrations in the online architecture magazine Veredes since 2012, and have also collaborated in the Bartlebooth Magazine. But, above all, they are evidence of the endless source of new Spanish authors who have obvious quality.

THE OUTLANDISH TREASURE ISLAND Plot: Pinto & Chinto have done it again! They have brought us a book a ghost pirate gave to them in one of their trips. One must be careful because it is a ghost boo k and, at any time, while we are reading, it can go up in smoke. The outlandish Treasure Island is a book full of characters, animals and out of the ordinary things. Like everybody who looks for special pirate treasure, they are funny and crazy. Jim, who was called Jimmy until a pirate shortened his name with only one cut; Bill Bones, whose song made rum bottles rain from the sky; Silver “the Large”, whose nickname was understood by everybody as soon as they met him; his parrot, Captain Flint, very quiet by the way ... and there are many more colorful characters to meet. Authors: Pinto & Chinto are already a well-known and established couple in the cartoonist and illustration world in Spain. With more than twenty years of experience, in addition to several awards and acknowledgments, they have created lots of books published all around the world.

MARTIÑO, THE INVENTOR Plot: Martiño, a boy entirely devoted to the development of his crazy creations, is misunderstood by his neighbours, who make fun of him. He decides to look for a friend. Will he succeed? Curiosity, perseverance and friendship are explored as important values of our lives. Author: Kike Gómez (Lugo, Spain, 1985) and Irene Sanjuán (A Coruña, Spain, 1981) are writer and illustrator respectively. Bululú supports their youth and quality and this editorial release demonstrates that both things are compatible.

PANIC IN THE FOREST OF THE WITHERED HEARTS Plot: Despite being written early in the career of the renowned writer Jack Mircala, this story is being published for the first time. This book is drawn entirely using rotring, perhaps the least known feature of his work, through which he shows his characteristic style and sensibility, both in drawing and in the plot development. “This book is destined to entertain and please everybody, regardless of age, and to stimulate the imagination through the use of fantasy”, Jack Mircala says. The plot: on the outskirts of Malvadia there is a disturbing forest inhabited by Panics Mutants. Bizarre, ugly but harmless creatures that never sleep, led by a violinist called Fastido, haunt the days of the villagers, except for one, Bladis, a handsome young pianist who is going to help Fastidio and Panics to change their lives. Authors: Jack Mircala, an artist native to Madrid, comes from industrial and interior design. At the beginning of the 90s, he completely changed his career prolifically writing an original body of work: a melancholy and gothic world with inventive and colorful stories, full of a dramatic lyricism inspired by his idols Tim Burton, Poe or the classic Hammer films. This is another excellent choice from Bululú, showcasing quality content and well-illustrated work.

THE IMPORTANT THINGS Plot: This is a book about values, those values that childhood experiences and lessons imprint upon us for the rest of our lives. This is what the main character shows to us in this diary, a diary he started with indifference but that today, when he revisits it, understands that “in a handful of blank pages we can capture the entire universe”. Appreciate the everyday treasures, the true meaning of courage, the reward of sharing... these are the values our main character reminds us of using a touching mixture of irony and melancholy. Author: El primo Ramón is a creature with two heads: Borja López Cotelo (A Coruña, 1980) is an architect and doctor in graphical expression, and María Olmo Béjar (A Coruña, 1980), who is also an architect. From 2009 to 2013, they were in charge of the graphic art in Pecha Kucha conferences.

ERIK, BUILDER OF DREAMS Plot: “Have you ever wondered where dreams come from? Who decides what each person is going to dream of?” From this appealing question springs a dazzling answer. Erik, sweet as the material of our best dreams, shows them to us in their different forms and characters.
