Über diesen Titel
 Between the Pasagad and the Banyan Tree tells the true story of an immigrant boy learning what it takes to survive a troubled home life. Follow Amboy's journey across the Pacific from the rural farm fields of the Philippines to plantation-era Naalehu, Hawaii, in the 1970s and 1980s. Amboys childhood stories are woven through an Islanders Hawaiian Pidgin humor and his rich Ilocano memory. Amboy confronts language barriers and seeks cultural assimilation at school, while domestic violence, infidelity, and alcoholism torment his home life. This memoir shows how love from his community of teachers, friends, and family created a sanctuary and helped one boy overcome childhood trauma and become 'Super Amboy.' Told with humor and painful honesty, it explores how to deal with childhood wounds and how community helps us heal into adulthood. However, some childhood trauma will never completely disappear and will become deeply ingrained inside us, lasting a lifetime. This Filipino American memoir is a personal coming-of-age story about belonging and cultural identity in childhood. It explores the struggles and resilience of an Ilocano immigrant family in Hawaii as they navigate through their family dysfunction. Amboy's memoir sheds light on the effects of childhood trauma and complex post-traumatic stress disorder. Discover the abundant joy and profound sadness of Amboy's journey. Diary of an Ilocano Boy is touching and memorable, prompting you to reflect on your own inner-child experiences.©2026 David S. Salazar, Jr. (P)2026 David S. Salazar, Jr.
