The Lands of Ball Face and the Corn Boy

Today we'll tell you a little about the world of Cara de Bola and one of its inhabitants who has won the love of many: El Niño Maíz.

In 2017, a famous researcher named Pablito Clavóunclavito III discovered an alternate and secret world that extends throughout the Mexican Republic, where fantastic people and creatures live whose purpose is to bring happiness and laughter to all of Mexico.

All his discoveries and experiences were written in a travel notebook, from which a book was made entitled  The Ball Face Lands .

Original notebook by Pablito Clavóunclavito III

In it, he says that he has never really known the real name of this new world (since its inhabitants still keep many secrets), however he named it Ball Face because all the beings that live there always greet each other with a Hello Ball Face!

For the protection of all the beings of Cara de Bola, the author has omitted the means of accessing it; although it is known that many of the Caraboleans (a name invented by Mr. Pablito to refer to its inhabitants) are very curious and often leave their world to explore all of Mexico, making new friends and getting into mischief.

Mr. Pablito also mentions that all Caraboleans are very jovial, fun, kind beings and great lovers of nature, so they will always be willing to not only share their good energies, but also to show their great love and good care for Mother Earth.

The whereabouts of Pablito Clavóunclavito III are currently unknown, however some say that he decided to stay and live in Cara de Bola .

The Corn Boy

Mr. Pablito describes in his book that there are different regions within Cara de Bola . One of them is the Green Territory , where all the beings found there are descendants of some fruit or vegetable.

Among all these beings, we find the Golden Grain tribe, one of the warrior groups found in Ball Face. All its inhabitants are descendants of corn and are charged with defending the entire Green Territory from any threat.

Mr. Pablito writes:

“The Golden Grains are not really violent and try to solve everything through dialogue, although if necessary they will not avoid giving you a good smacking .”

It was on his second expedition that the researcher found the first Golden Grain , who was just a small corncob that had not even developed its limbs yet.

Pablito mentions that he couldn't help but feel a lot of affection for him from the first moment he saw him and called him Baby Corn (as you can see, Mr. Pablito wasn't very imaginative with names). Clearly Baby Corn He felt a similar affection, allowing the researcher to have a very good relationship with the Golden Grain tribe.

As you can see in our Corn Boy T-shirt , he used to have a grain of corn on his nose. However, once the Golden Grains develop legs and arms, this grain falls off as a symbol of maturity. It's worth noting that although Corn Boy is only two years old, he's already the equivalent of a human age of 12, since Caraboleans develop much faster than people on our world.

Corn Boy, despite being small compared to the rest of his group, is very restless and for that reason he has already had many adventures and has saved thousands of Caraboleans .

He's also traveled to the human world more times than others. Thanks to that, we've had the opportunity to capture photos of him to post on our Instagram .

The last one time we saw him he mentioned to us that right now this searching a sacred relic for the Golden Grains , which grants prosperity, peace and rich food as long as you bring it with you

It was left to continue informing us of your search throughout this month. Stay tuned!
