Description
Imagine living in a country of islands, sprinkled across the ocean like stars in the
sky, each with its own unique geography and people. Mary, Jaime, and Ari don't
have to imagine it- they live it! Join these three Filipino cousins, who live very
different lives but are the best of friends, on an incredible journey across their
home-the colorful island nation of the Philippines.
From visiting each of their houses and schools to getting to know their families and
favorite places, Mary, Jaime, and Ari share a glimpse of their lives to help other
kids understand what makes the Philippines such a special place. Full of fun facts and perfect for a family to enjoy together, All About the Philippines
covers the conquistadors and traders who came to the islands centuries ago,
natural disasters such as earthquakes or typhoons, and so much more.
