from 127 reviewsGreat product!
Reading it as an adult versus when I was in high school, resonates so much more. It still pertains to what’s is going on today. The toxicity started by Spain and it’s friars still permeates.
Fantastic items and order fulfillment! Thank you so much!
Love Hot Tropiks!!
Beautiful illustrations, something that I'll reread multiple times. Josefina deserves a spot in my personal library.
Started reading it immediately. Love the illustrations. The research and love for the work produced is obvious. Grateful for this gem.
Hat fits perfectly. Want to build my own smaller scale báhay kúbo in the backyard. Salamat! 😊

Unexpected and delightful counting 1 to 10 book. Would buy copies for friends!
Great condition, quality printing
Very short and sweet story about the importance of apologizing and forgiveness to teach very early on as well as teaching simple phrases and names for family members in Tagalog
Powerful storytelling with beautiful art. Very happy with the work of Ebony Soy and the delivery by Hot Tropiks. Also loved the additional content in the Hot Tropiks release!
