Book Launch | Si Migoy, Ang Batang Tausug

Book Launches are a rare event prominently held in bookstores rather than in huge public venues or inside a shopping centre. But this one is a partnership between the publisher the author and illustrator with the NBDB (National Book Development Board) promoting literacy in the country. The event is about a book launch featuring a Children’s book, and not just an ordinary book for kids. It is a story about an Indigenous Boy named Migoy, a Tausug an ethnic group of people who live in the Philippines, Malaysia, and Indonesia. The book promotes Filipino Culture and Cuisine. This is a reason why reading is important and why this launch was special for the kids out there.

Celebrate Grand Parents Day!

09.06.2013 – In the Philippines there are a lot of holidays and family related occasions. But rarely do we celebrate Grandparents Day. Probably some have forgotten to spend that kind of event with our Grand Fathers and Mothers. Araneta Center takes pride in celebrating occasions like these and it makes an interesting moment to share this event with them because you’ll never know when they will be around. I’m sure some of you would be pleased to know more about this.
