Travel the Phillippines with author and publisher Christina Newhard as she takes readers on a journey through the Philippines to listen to a story and do a craft without stepping on a plane. Through reading beautifully illustrated picture books, island-hop from the far North to the far Southern Philippines, meeting shy boys, grumpy octopuses, talking eagles, brave girls, weavers and friendly monsters along the way.

Christina Newhard is a designer, writer and publisher. Her fascination with books began when she was 5 years old. Born in Manila to a Tagalog mother and American father, she moved to the U.S. at the age of 10, but always holds the Philippines in her heart. A love for text, image, and story moved her to pursue a career in graphic design. In asking the question, “how can design strengthen Filipino culture in a meaningful way?” her children's press, Sari-Sari Storybooks was born. The press has published five bilingual titles in Ivatan, Cebuano, Chavacano, Waray, and Meranaw, and received positive coverage from the Nerds of Color, The Seattle Review of Books, Smart Parenting PH, The Aswang Project, The Fil-Am, The Inquirer, and Asia Pacific Forum on WBAI. A former New Yorker, Christina now lives in Oakland with a tiny, vocal cat named Princess Genghis. She is most at home in a city by the water.
