Drawing on the tradition of the letra y figuras, an art form that used figures and scenes of 19th century Philippine life to form letters that spell out a person's name, this book by Eugene Y. Evasco and Aaron Asis updates the form for the 21st century using images and concepts to spell out aspects of Philippine culture. Evasco is a creative writing professor at the University of the Philippines and specializes in children's literature and Filipino language. Asis is a freelance illustrator.

TheresaI felt really emotional looking in the mirror wearing this because it reminded me of my mom, my lola and so many other women in my family wearing this in the Philippines.
Z. V.I received my patadyong today. It is very pretty, the fabric is well woven and soft... My grandmother used patadyong’s as far as I could remember, and wearing one just reminded me of her unselfish love and care. To me it is a comfort garment. I was born in Iloilo, and am very familiar with patadyongs. Thank you for making it available to us here in the US.
