Book Description from the Front Cover FlapIn the age-old tradition of teaching language through rhyme and verse, My First Book of Tagalog Words introduces Philippine language and culture to preschool children in a playful and non-intimidating way. The ABC structure provides a familiar framework that encourages fun and easy learning. Its bold and bright illustrations aim to make children laugh, appealing to them at the level of the heart.Background on Liana Romulo and Jaime LaurelLiana Romulo spends much of her free time traveling, scuba-diving, and hunting through new and unusual bookstores.
