Summary: "Sikat na sikat ang Lakaya bilang nayon ng pinakamahusay na mangingisda. Walang alinmang uri ng isda ang di nila kayang hulihin. Walang nakapapalag sa bagsik at dahas ng lambat nila't baklad. Isang araw, naubos lahat ang mga lamang-dagat. Nangamba ang buong bayan. Kalaunan, nagutom ang mga taumbayan, bumagsak ang kanilang kabuhayan. Sa pamumuno ni Datu Kumahog, namingwit sila sa ibang lugar - sa langit! Ano naman kaya ang mabibingwit nila sa langit? Alamin sa kuwentong ito kung ano ang napala ng mga taga-Lakaya sa pamimingwit sa langit, gayundin ang mahalagang mensahe at aral na hatid nito. (Lakaya is highly renowned for being a village where one could find the very best fishermen. There is no fish that the townspeople could not catch. Nothing could struggle free from their ruthless, cruel nets and pens. One day, all the seafood are used up. The whole town grows anxious. Eventually, the townspeople go hungry, their livelihood starts to suffer. Led by Datu Kumahog, they go fishing in another place - the heavens! What can they possibly fish from the heavens? Find out in this story what the people of Lakaya reap from fishing in the heavens and also the important and significant message and lesson it brings.)" - Provided by publisher
