I love this! I am so glad I found this company. It is a joy to learn more about my culture! Especially the mythology!
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!
I love the quality of the graphics and the material for the t-shirt! You know it's not going to rip or fade!! My request is to bring back the Hard Mode T-Shirt! Missed the opportunity to get one!!! Thank you!
Above and beyond all expectations. Read it all in one sitting and couldn't put it down. Highly recommend! Plus there's a very fun bonus at the back of the book.
Thanks for bringing this product design to the US :)
A+++ customer service!
I super love the story!
My second time purchasing. Its a great book.
I absolutely loved the story of the first generation child of an immigrant family. It was rather enlightening as the author truly shows how immigrants are an integral part in society. Always have. Always will be.
Perfect gift for my chef nephew! So much cool stuff in general in the shop. Fast easy shipping too.
