“This latest installment in the “I Like to Read” series highlights traditional folk dances from the Philippines. At most, each page has six words, leaving plenty of room for the beautiful illustrations, which help readers identify words as well. Costumes, backgrounds, and featured dancers come alive with bright colors, allowing the large black text to stand out. Children will hopefully try to mimic the dance. A great introduction to and celebration of Filipino culture. ”
