Saan Ka, Ligaya? - Tagalog Board Book

Written by Karla Berron & Illustrated by Allyana Leizel

Using relatable experiences and dialogue-based story-telling, Saan ka, Ligaya? encourages the carer and child to read aloud together in Tagalog. The vocabulary is optimized to useful essentials and simple words.

This book is a Tagalog only book, with the English translation featured only at the back of the book. This is deliberate because including English translation into the pages weakens the story flow and makes it tempting for an English-dominant speaking family to ignore the unfamiliar Tagalog words. The readers will more strongly engage in Tagalog and eventually memorize the text. But don’t worry, along with the English translation is an illustrated glossary at the back!
