By: Dorinha Aguiar

Narrated by: Bebel Rosa

In Muriqui, the happy monkey, living in society is approached. The greatest primate in Brazil teaches us the importance of studying, of having emotional balance, of looking for what is appropriate to you and what you need. Teaches democracy. The little blue fairies enchant children, by instigating reasoning and leading to the realization that everything comes from thinking and that joy has a place in everyone's heart.

The collection The 7 Virtues - Stories from Hawk's Little Ranch was created to motivate parents and educators to tell stories to children, motivating them to think about human values.

The characters, personified animals, represent the virtues and tell stories of the folklore of the State of Minas Gerais – Brazil, as well as legends, myths and manifestation of a culture. All stories in the book are based on true events that happened at the ranch of the author's ranch.

It's a collection of children's books, with stories based on the folklore of the Center-West of Minas Gerais State. Through humanized animals, the author not only records the oral history, but also rescues values such as respect, honesty, solidarity, endurance, generosity and friendship, dating back to the time of Grandma, but always needed for proper social coexistence.
