A Captivating Filipino Mythology-Inspired Graphic Novel for Young Readers

Ilustra: Daybreaker is a powerful middle-grade graphic novel that blends fantasy, adventure, and Filipino folklore in a beautifully illustrated debut by award-winning Filipina author and artist Tori Tadiar.

Mika Mirasol has always clung to the stories her lola told her—tales of gods, goddesses, and spirits from the Philippines. But when a mysterious moth speaks in her grandmother’s voice and triggers a magical power within her, those stories suddenly become her reality. After accidentally binding herself to two classmates with an uncontrolled spell, Mika embarks on a journey to break the curse and uncover her true role in a world where ancient myths are real.

Praised as “Amulet meets a Filipino Percy Jackson” by bestselling author Melissa de la Cruz, this is the start of a gripping new series that celebrates friendship, heritage, and finding strength in the stories that shape us.


Key Features:

  • Inspired by Philippine mythology — introduces young readers to the rich spiritual and cultural traditions of the Philippines

  • Vivid artwork by a Filipina creator brings mythical creatures and ancient lore to life
