Folk literature consists of the nich beliefs, songs,
sayings, and tales of how things began or why
events happened. It presents several ideas
about the cultural past of the Filipino people. It
is important for young people to study them so
they may develop pride in our glonous past
We are here to the launch of a new book of
Philippine folk literature Hundreds of scholars
and students are gathered here at the National
Library for this event. The phenomenal book
was written by renowned anthropologist Dr.
Ishmael Santos who believes that we need to
reserve the poems and stories of our ancestors
as part of our cultural identity. The book is
available at all leading bookstores nationwide
for a reasonable price of one thousand three
hundred forty-five pesos only. Hurry and get
your copies now!
I believe that young people should continue to
read the sayings and stories crafted by our
ancestors and passed on to generations of
citizens. It is our gateway to appreciating their
lifestyle, aspirations, and vision. I am not sure if
we would grow up to become good citizens if we
do not have an appreciation and valuing of
these national treasures
