“Mahirap sumulat ng children’s book”- Virgilio Almario
•
“Threatened ang wika natin,” ganito inilarawan ng manunulat, makata at Alagad ng Sining para sa Panitikan, Virgilio Amario, ang kasalukuyang estado ng Wikang Filipino. Ayon sa kanya, mababa pa rin ang pagtingin sa ating wika dahil sa kolonyal na mentalidad.
Noong 1980, nakita niya ang pangangailangan ng pagsulat ng mga librong pambata kaya’t itinatag niya ang Adarna House na naglalayong makahikayat ng bagong henerasyon ng mambabasa. Ikinuwento niya ang mahabang proseso bago siya nakasulat ng kuwentong pambata at aminadong hindi ito madali. Pinaliwanag din ni G. Almario kung bakit ang aklat na isinulat ni Bise Presidente Sara Duterte ay ang katibayan na mahirap sumulat ng librong pambata.
Dinetalye rin ni G. Almario ang dahilan kung bakit sa wikang Tagalog hango ang wikang Filipino at nilinaw na hindi ito “niluto ni Quezon.”
