Pag-abot ni Kolor sa Lungsod (When Color Came to Town) is a book written and illustrated by Susan Dela Rosa Aragon. I got a copy of the book in Cebuano/Visayan a few months ago while searching for a storybook to be used in one of the Basadours’ storytelling sessions. Since then, it has been one of my favorite picture books.
We used this book in storytelling sessions in Yolanda-hit areas, and it has never failed to capture the attention of the kids. Pag-abot ni Kolor sa Lungsod is a value-laden book that teaches children the basic about colors, and instills in adults the importance of working together to find that rainbow in gray situation.
I have timed myself six times as an attempt to observe the twins’ attention span. You will be surprised how attentive they are. I am proud of them. 06 June 2014
