Customer Rating:

Summary: more regional
Comment: THis was an okay book but the words used were more regional--from northern luzon, Ilocos region. If that is your native dialect, it'll work otherwise there are other books out there that are straight Tagalog--Filipino language books.

Summary: Children's Dictionary
Comment: I thought this word book would at least have the tagalog words written with the correct pronunciations so that if a person who wasn't Filipino, would be able to read this to their child, but it's nothing like that. A reader would have to assume that the way they pronounce the Tagalog words were correct when they try to sound it out, but more than likely, it will not be understood.

Summary: For the next generation
Comment: I bought this for my little grandson, who has a "Lola" (his other grandmother) from the Philippines who now lives in America. Both he and my daughter love reading this book! I highly recommend it for any child with any Filipino relatives.

Summary: We love it!
Comment: My 2 and 3/4 year old son and I love this book. He has learned how to say the animals and numbers in Tagalog which is Phenomenal. My sisters are gonna be so jealous that my son is bilingual, as they never took the time to teach their kids the language :) This book, along with others, has helped me in teaching him age-appropriate Tagalog words.
