Filipino Children's Favorite Stories

(4) K-3 Illustrated by Joanne de Leon. This collection includes Filipino fables, pourquoi tales, and legends. The thirteen stories reflect the richness of Filipino culture, with indigenous, Spanish, and some American strands woven into the tellings. The lighthearted illustrations are occasionally awkward, and the retellings lack finesse. However, considering the dearth of Filipino folklore books for children, libraries may want this one in their collections. Bib.
