Summary, Etc.
  • Summary, etc. - "...Co-authored by two enterprising mothers who...have written nine fictional letters to tomorrow's children..." --Asiaweek July 17, 1986
  • Summary, etc. - "...The authors recount the events leading up to February and make both Aquino and her dead husband the focal points of the book... Contains superior photographs..." --Far Eastern Economic Review July 3, 1986
  • Summary, etc. - "...semi-personal approach to what happened in February. The letters...do appear to be authentic accounts of persons caught up in the EDSA event. There is also a significant attempt to place the snap elections in context...referring again and again not only to Ninoy...but to all the other heroes who died for their country, such as Emman Lacaba, Bobby dela Paz and Evelio Javier...The book is a good antidote to those who think of EDSA only in terms of the good times. We must, now and then, think also of the bad times." - Isagani R. Cruz, The Manila Times, June 26, 1986
