A parallel text in Filipino.

Reading is an adventure that offers a treasure. Children can enter the rich world of literature through the formation of an early reading habit--that in itself is like finding a treasure. Literature nourishes the mind and spirit, shapes character, and prepares the child for a full life! The treasure of reading becomes valuable to a child when shared with family and friends. Both parents and teachers can guide children in their pursuit of knowledge, as well as nurture them in learning and adopting Christian values. Every Hiyas book aims to impart knowledge and teach values that will help enrich children. As you read this book with your child you can fill in the gap between the book and the child's learning. Explore with your child the many gems of Philippine children's literature! --Front cover of the book
