Senninha

Senninha is a Brazilian comic book series created by Rogério Martins and Ridaut Dias Jr., whose main character is based upon Formula One world champion Ayrton Senna.

The character was launched on 28 January 1994, when Ayrton Senna announced the project in order to pass on some of his values to Brazilian children (and also to face Turma da Mônica), and the first publication was on 27 February 1994.

In 2015 a cartoon series of short episodes, "Zupt com o Senninha", was aired on educational channels such as Discovery Kids and TV Cultura.

With episodes lasting between 8 and 9 minutes, children watch the cartoon, but are also invited to participate in the plot, through a game where they must perform a series of physical movements to help the protagonists in the most exciting moments of the story.

In each episode, Senninha and Teo (his younger brother) get into action creating super funny versions of fables and well-known heroes, such as Little Red Riding Hood, Rapunzel, Batman and Star Wars.
