Flamengo and Editora Leitura will launch another children's book on Tuesday, the 24th, at 19pm, at the Saraiva bookstore in the Rio Sul shopping mall, in Botafogo, Rio de Janeiro: "Once Flamengo, always Flamengo!".
Part of the "Paixão entre Linhas" (Passion Between Lines) imprint, Eduardo de Ávila's 20-page comic book features five young Flamengo fans sharing everything they know about the feelings that unite them. The book, printed in four colors, tells, for example, how the club's soccer department came into being after a group of Fluminense players split, among other intriguing anecdotes. The suggested retail price is R$7,90.
Other books - Two other books about Flamengo will be launched at the same event: "My Greatest Pleasure" and "My Heart's Team," both written by sports journalists Carlos Eduardo Mansur and Luciano Ribeiro. At 296 pages, "My Greatest Pleasure" is the first book in the debut collection of the "Paixão entre Linhas" imprint, published by Editora Leitura. The work features 32 accounts of Flamengo personalities, in interviews conducted and organized by the journalists—among them conversations with Emperor Adriano and Serbian Petkovic. "My Heart's Team" is a pocket-sized book, organized by the same authors, summarizing Flamengo's history, including titles, decade-by-decade history, great idols, top scorers, and unforgettable matches.
