The Legend of Tessie Agana
Beloved Child Star of the Philippines
An Intimate Portrait of My Mother
“It’s rare for a daughter to put into poignant prose the travails and triumphs of her mother. It is rarer still for a mother to view her entire life through the prism of her beloved offspring. Yet, this is the lyrical brilliance of this jewel of a book, The Legend of Tessie Agana.”
Gina Vera-Perez De Venecia, Humanitarian, former Congresswoman in the Philippines
