In childhood, we are presented with a variety of cartoons in television programs. And some of these works, although appreciated at the time, have escaped our memory, either because they were exhibited for a short time, or because they didn’t receive as much attention from the public as other productions.
Below, we list 10 drawings that were definitely part of your childhood, but may have gotten lost in your old memories.
