On the circus tent, set up for attractions, illusionist Lúcio Alves impressed the little ones with the art of magic. Kamilly, aged 9, was called on stage to be an assistant for one of the numbers in the performance. “Was pretty cool. I had never been to a presentation like this and participated”, revealed the student from Escola Municipal Paulo Couto, alongside teacher Karina Oliveira, who had the mission of taking care of a very active class willing to explore the fair. “It’s work, but it’s a unique opportunity that the city hall provided by offering buses and book vouchers. They are enjoying it a lot,” she assured.
The manga characters Zero Two and Sesshomaru brought joy to little Manuela, 5 years old, a student at Escola Municipal Jardim Verde. Mother Jacinta Abreu and daughter Lurdes Abreu came from the Scharlau neighborhood just to enjoy the event and the Cosplay presentation. “It’s Manu’s first time in an environment like this, among the people, with her colleagues, so we made a point of being together”, she highlighted. The parade of heroes was attended by Iron Man, Captain America, as well as Snow White and Super Girl.
