Seven tales drawn from the rich folklore of the Philippines, retold by award-winning author and school librarian Zarah C. Gagatiga and illustrated in whimsical watercolor by Corazon Dandan-Albano. The stories range from a kindhearted turtle outwitting a cunning monkey thief, to a talented fisherman undone by his own pride before the gods, to a chicken who loses a beloved friendship over a broken promise. Presented in both English and Tagalog, with free online resources including a glossary, lesson guides, and read-aloud audio recordings of every story in both languages, this is a genuinely useful book for families and classrooms alike.
