AT the School Gate—a children’s book about the experience of a 15-year-old high school student during the government’s witch hunt against people branded as Leftist dissidents in 1991.
Written by Sandra Nicole Roldan, with illustrations by Nina Martinez, this book depicts memories of martial law, as well as the bravery displayed by children and families of so-called dissidents in the aftermath of the government’s anti-Leftist campaign 27 years ago. The author is an offshore PhD candidate at RMIT University in Melbourne, Australia, and teaches Creative Writing at the College of Arts and Letters in UP Diliman.
At the School Gate is great reading for children and young people ages 10 years old to senior high school, as well as freedom-loving people of all ages.
