Manolito Gafotas

by Elvira Lindo

Manolito Gafotas, a little boy from Carabanchel, pronounces his observations of the world using grand words he has appropriated from films, television and the grown-ups who surround him. With his grandfather Nicolas, his brother ''the Imbecile,'' and his friends Orejones Lopez, Yihad, and Susana, Manolito Gafotas transforms even the simplest everyday activity into an incredible adventure, reminding us that childhood is the most magical time of our lives.
