TAGU-TAGUAN A Counting Book in Filipino

If you are into insect-watching and learning numbers, you can have the pleasures of both in one colorfully delightful reading material…

There is one counting book newly out that sticks out from the bookshop shelves. Tagu-Taguan (Hide and Seek) has the fine elements of an excellent gift for a two-year-old tyke…

Combining the comely illustrations of Jomike Tejido and the sleek editorial presentation of Tahanan Publishing, Tagu-Taguan presents bugs in such a way that these are works of art on canvases of warm and cool colors. Page by page, readers will be awed by the beauty of these ‘Bijoux du Monde,’ for from the beholder’s perspective, the insects here may rightly be called the ‘jewels of the world…

The book is ideal for age one and up. Even adults can enjoy counting with their kids as they gleefully turn the leaves of this utterly lovely book. Now available at all major Philippine bookstores for P150. For more information, please contact Fran or Josie at 813-7165 or email fran@tahananbooks.com.
