Produktinformationen zu „Barefoot in Siargao (ePub)“
Barefoot in Siargao is a collection of stories that the author drew on her memories of idyllic childhood summers and nature adventures in Siargao, the mystical island home of her grandparents.
She writes about family life, traditional beliefs, local culture, and folklore-ayok (witches), ghosts, and balls of fire. The book was born out of her love of art, nature, literature, and culture. The book aims to open wonders in nature and deepen the human bond with the natural world. The writer urges readers to be sensitive to culture and environment and protect all creation. Readers learn about the natural heritage of Siargao Island, which is of important conservation value to the Philippines because of its coral habitats, seagrass, mangroves, and wildlife.
The book is a loving tribute to Siargao, the touchstone of her family, and a celebration of the strong heritage of faith and love that her parents and grandparents left the family.
