A Chavacano Tale from southern Mindanao.

About the Author
Christina Buhain Newhard has been fascinated with books since she was five years old. Born in Manila to a Filipina mother and American father, she moved to the US at the age of 10, but always holds the Philippines in her heart. A love for text, image, and story moved her to pursue a career in graphic design. In asking the question, "how can design strengthen Filipino culture in a meaningful way?", Sari-Sari Storybooks was born.
A Philippine import.
