Filipino Friends by Romulo, Liana

• Written by Liana Romulo. A Filipino-American boy visits the Philippines for the first time, with each illustration labeled in both English and Tagalog.
• Includes an introduction to Filipino customs -- festivals, traditional dress, food, songs, games, and the Tagalog language.
