Gain Ang Palasyo Ng Mga Duwende Fabricated By Severino Reyes Expressed As E-Text
is one of the individual illustrated books that Anvil Publishing, Inc, released to make the reading of Reyes' masterpiece more appealing to children,
All these books have a standard prologue entitled "For Teachers and Parents" and this is what it says about these stories: "The themes of the stories are relevant to their children needs and from these can be drawn lessons, delight and pleasure, and other ways of appreciation of Philippine literature.
"
Let me see how this book fares in my humble opinion:
Theme: Crime does not pay.
Lessons:
Like in the story of sitelinkCinderella of Charles Perrault, the abusive stepmother and stepdaughters pay for their wicked deeds in the end.
But like Cinderella, Yani has a forgiving heart,
Delight and Pleasure:
The women characters are so sexy, Dressed like tribal women, they look topless with only body paints covering their bosoms, Don't read this book while we are at the height of summer, You will burst into an explosion!
Other Ways of Appreciation of Philippine Literature:
All of these books have influences of foreign fairy tales that Severino
Reyes read.
I am still to read sitelinkAesop's Fables, sitelinkThe Complete Grimm's Fairy Tales and others but I will not be surprised to see similarities.
I think the important thing is that Severino Reyes, Christine Belen and the illustrator made efforts to localize the story.
So far, I think they achieved this,
Overall: One of the better books in the series, It's just that the sexy female characters shadowed the dwarfs, Also, the book title says "dwarves, " At first, I thought that the correct plural of dwarf was dwarves but GR underlined it with red so I tried dwarfs and the red underline disappeared.
Are they both correct i dont know
