Enchanted Lion Books is excited to announce the upcoming publication, in May 2018, of Macanudo: Olga Rules! Full of surrealism and magic, this collection of the great Macanudo introduces one of Liniers’s most beloved characters: Olga!

Dreamed up one day by Martin, a young elementary school kid, Olga is the best friend anyone could ask for. Even if the only word Olga ever utters is "Olga," Martin always seems to know just what is meant. Sharing the pages with longtime Macanudo favorites like the book loving Henrietta, Fellini the cat, Oliverio the Olive, the Mysterious Man in Black, and more, Olga and Martin demonstrate the sublime, comic vitality of the imagination.

OLGA is coming. OLGA is GREAT. You won't be the same after. Are you ready?
