Author:  Lolita J. Bulalacao, Ph.D.

What makes a mango different from a rambutan? Or a sampaguita from a waling-waling? Or a balete from a narra tree? In this new series, botanist Lolita J. Bulalacao uses simple descriptions to distinguish one species from another so that children can sharpen their skills of observation. Each book profiles ten types of flora or fauna found in the Philippines Crispin Dayao's vivid full-color illustrations being each specimen to life. Tahanan Books for Young Readers' A First Look At...series has two goals: to help children understand basic classification in biology and to open their eyes to the diversity of the world around them.
