 Why the Firefly Glows
A long time ago, there was a
little firefly named Lito. He loved
flying around the trees in the forest
at night. Diwata Kalinaw, the
Goddess of Nature lives watches
how little Lito enjoys flying from
one tree to another. The firefly was
small, but he had a big dream. He
wanted to have a light like the stars

A long time ago, a carabao
and a horse lived on a farm.
The farm was big and had
many green fields. The farmer
took care of his animals, and
they worked hard every day.
 One morning, the horse
ran around the field. He
saw the carabao pulling a
heavy cart. He laughed
and said, “That cart is too
heavy for you! Why do you
work so hard?”

said, “This cart helps me and
the farmer to make our work
easier. In return for helping
him, he gives me these food

his head. “How silly! I do not
carry those heavy loads, but
the farmer still feeds me,” he
