Mulle Meck and the Circus Lights

One day, a middle-aged, sullen stranger arrives in the small town where Mulle Meck, his friends and neighbors live. It turns out that this is none other than Benny Brambilla, the director of the world-famous circus. For some time now, his strength has been exhausted, and he has fallen into a black melancholy. Instead of putting on cheerful, noisy performances, Benny Brambilla now quietly weaves baskets and sells them at the market. “At least they are of some use,” he says.

The townspeople are sure that the sad old man can be helped. All that is needed is to return his faith in himself and his art. This idea inspired all the townspeople so much that no one wanted to stay aside. Everyone hurried to make a feasible contribution.

Mulle Meck and his friends helped Benny Brambilla to regain his spirit and even create his own circus school. At the same time, Mulle converted Benny's old car into an environmentally friendly electric car and made a trailer for it so that the maestro could travel around the world and bring joy to people.

The creators of the Mullah Meck books are the famous Swedish writer Georg Johansson, author of many children's books about science and technology, and the equally famous illustrator Jens Alboom. The stories about the jack of all trades, mechanic Mullah Meck and his dog Buffa have been extremely popular with Swedish children for over 25 years. Mullah is loved no less than the famous heroes of Astrid Lindgren's fairy tales.
