Tahanan Books Pakitong Kitong: A Cebuano Folk Song

Behind every Tahanan book is a wealth of stories. The books they’ve published over the years—over 150 titles—were born out of creative collaborations with talented authors and artists. And you, the readers, are very much a part of their story!

How hard is it to catch a river crab? Harry Monzon interprets the well-loved children’s song, “Pakitong-kitong” as a journey on a fishing boat navigating through the river while trying to catch the little creatures living in the lush mangrove forests of Cebu.
