FIELD OF DREAMS. Bonifacio Elementary School is one of the farthest and poorest Barangay in Cuyapo, Nueva Ecija. It is about 15 km away from the town proper and is literally situated at the center of a vast rice field. Through the request of Teacher and newly appointed School Principal Mr. Carlo Mañalac, we visited the school and brought the much needed school books and references to help the kids and the teachers. These 2nd batch of books (the 1st in 2013) shall also initially fill the planned small library with the help of the parents and local officials in partnership with Books For A Cause. In this visit, we met John Paul Flores, a Grade 6 pupil who was born with no arms and yet makes his way to fulfill his simple dreams. Yes he is right-handed . . . Right footed! Please watch him write his name using the fingers of his right foot. Any assistance to the JP and the school will be very much appreciated. #BooksForACause #LiteracyAdvocacy #ShareABook #GivingBack #Bonifacio #BookDonations #PreLovedBooks #prelovedbooksph #GetInvolved #Cuyapo #Armless #BoyWithNoArms #BunchOfDreams #FieldOfDreams #Dreams #RightFoot (at Municipality of Cuyapo)

***RESTOCKED: 3 copies (2 fresh, 1 yellowed sides at a lower price) The Gullet by Clinton Palanca (BRAND NEW, Sealed) . . In the last ten years, the Philippines has undergone nothing short of a culinary revolution. At first as an expatriate living in London, then eventually fully immersed in the scene as a writer and critic, Philippine Daily Inquirer’s resident food reviewer chronicles the remarkable transformation of gastronomic backwater into a giddy, opulent, and at times overwhelming foodie scene. . "Food pays witness to histories, personal and political. In Clinton Palanca's “The Gullet: Dispatches on Philippine Food,” The Philippine Daily Inquirer’s resident food writer does more than traverse the literal plane of recipes, origins, and flavors common in food writing. As a collection of essays on food and travel,”The Gullet” explores the role that food plays in our personal relationships and the place it holds in our collective psyche. Speaking literally, going down the gullet is a journey from the mouth to the stomach — from encounter to understanding. Reading the “The Gullet” feels like that journey; every essay takes you deeper into flavors, stories and locales. It’s an autobiography by way of backstreet eatery order slips and Michelin star degustation menus." - CNN Life . "Saying that Clinton Palanca writes about food is kind of like saying Marcel Proust wrote about remembering stuff. Palanca brings an entirely unique skill set to food writing: He studied at Le Cordon Bleu, studied sociology at Oxford, ran his own restaurant and is an award-winning fictionist." - Philippine Daily Inquirer . . .

***RESTOCKED*** Virtual Nation: Insights into Contemporary Philippines by Sylvia L. Mayuga (BRAND NEW) . . Virtual Nation explores “a new way of being nation that Filipinos at home and all over the world are creating in cyberspace,” as it contends that Filipinos are “still creating the nation our revolutionary forefathers envisioned and died for.” Most of the essays in this book are opinion columns originally written for online publication from 2003 to 2010. In those seven turbulent years major global challenges to peace and survival in the threefold crises of our time—ecological, economic, and spiritual—converged. That they emerged under the troubled Gloria Macapagal-Arroyo presidency coeval with the war-torn, terror-laden George W. Bush years became a double spur to publish this book of “breaking history.” . . .

The Baguio We Know by Grace Celeste C. Subido (Editor) . . Today, with the emergence of new, and concededly more titillating, tourist destinations, many will admit that Baguio has "fallen from grace" from its once lofty position as "Summer Capital of the Philippines." However, perhaps more than anything, this collection of works reveals the Baguio that is so much more than the handmaiden to tourism that some may falsely believe is the answer to this city's ultimate salvation. This collection of works provides a glimpse into that "view from within" of a place forged in consciousness that trandscends boundaries of time and space. . . . CONDITION: Pre-loved.
