If you have not read or know anything about the legends of the Chocolate Hills in the Philippines and its tarsiers (species of small leaping primates found only on some of Southeast Asia islands, including the Philippines), then before you read even one more sentence in the book, you should know that the young Danilo, a son of a poor fisher, went along his friend Carlo on what they thought a fun trip to the Chocolate Hills in pursuit of free chocolates.

This supposedly one-day fun trip to the hills through the beautiful sea and farmland sides of the Island of Bohol, quickly turned into a few months terrible tragedy that devastated them, their families, and friends.

This storybook will take you through unusual situations, adventures, unexpected incidents, funny incidents, affinity relationships, and unexpected encounters.

This story recorded these unusual adventures. You, however, should decide whether you can possibly endure this mystical story.

  • Nethan C.R.

    A very exciting yet must-read book. Unusual with its adventures. Like to know what happened to Carlo, is he still alive? Will the author publishes another book? I enjoyed reading the book immensely!

  • Chadwick J.

    This story is very interesting and different. It was beyond what I had expected. Love how it started and enjoyed its unusual adventure and incidents. I also like the characters, the descriptive scenery of the island, the culture, and the tradition where the events took place. I wrote the case summary as an assignment for my English class, my teacher loved it! Great story! By the way, mom is enjoying reading it. It might take her some time but she will sure finish it.

  • Adeline Park

    A good storybook. Read it twice! I will keep the book in my little library. It is classic. Besides the various themes of this fiction novel, I learned something about this part of the world. Love to travel to Bohol and see the Chocolate Hills. The book made me do a google search on that part of the world, interesting indeed!
