Overview

Step into a world where myths breathe, spirits listen, and nature remembers. Tales from the Philippines is a luminous collection of original folktales inspired by the rich mythological heritage of the Philippine islands. Across emerald rice terraces, moonlit forests, coral-fringed seas, and mist-veiled mountains, these stories invite readers into a realm where the seen and unseen exist in delicate balance. Within these pages, you will encounter benevolent diwata, ancient guardians of wind and water; shadowed giants beneath towering trees; creatures of the deep who mourn forgotten moons; and wandering spirits shaped by fire, loss, and longing. Alongside them walk fishermen, children, weavers, and dreamers-ordinary souls whose quiet courage and compassion shape extraordinary destinies. These are not retellings of ancient myths, but newly woven legends that honor traditional folklore while speaking to modern readers. Each tale stands alone, yet together they explore timeless themes: - harmony between humanity and nature - the danger of greed and the wisdom of restraint - loss, forgiveness, and redemption - fear transformed through understanding - the enduring power of kindness Written in a lyrical, atmospheric style, this book is ideal for readers who love mythic fantasy, cultural storytelling, and immersive worlds rich with symbolism and emotion. Whether read slowly by candlelight or shared aloud, these stories are meant to linger-like the echo of a song carried on the wind. Perfect for readers of all ages, Tales from the Philippines is both a journey and a remembrance: a celebration of storytelling as a bridge between generations, cultures, and worlds. Open these pages-and let the islands speak.
