What is home? Discover what it means in a young girl's story of change.

Written by Maria Isabel Alarilla-Arellano
Artworks by Don Salubayba

Nanay tells her daughter that they are moving house. It is nicer, bigger, more beautiful. But what of their friends and family here? And what of the house itself? Would it not feel sad at being abandoned?

Sinabihan ng Nanay ang kaniyang anak na lilipat sila ng bahay. Sa isang mas maayos, malaki, at magandang bahay. Pero paano naman ang mga kaibigan at kapamilyang maiiwan nila? At paano na ang kanilang lumang bahay? Malulungkot din kaya ito sa kanilang paglisan?
