About the story:
Little Sandangaw might just be a handspan tall, but he wants to do all the things that bigger children do. If only his family weren’t so afraid he’d be blown away, dragged, or stepped on! When the village magic woman tells him to visit the Eagle of Mt. Danglay for help, Sandangaw learns what it takes to grow.

Presented by Sari-Sari Storybooks, in partnership with TOPAZ ARTS, Inc., the Filipino School of New York-New Jersey, PAL / Pilipinx American Library, and the Atlantic Pacific Theatre.
