Target: Odon
Ang Higanti ng Maliliit
(To Defeat a Tyrant)
 This is based on a Visayan
tale from an anthology of Leyteno literature by H. Otley beyer. Like many old stories,
this one features a conflict between the strong and the weak. Odon is a savage and cruel
giant. His evil ways provoke unity among the small animals that suffered under him.
Through a daring but carefully thought out plan carried out under the leadership of a tiny
bird, Pikoy, the weak ones take revenge on the savage giant.
This story proves the wisdom of the old saying:
"A mote in your eye can blind you." Children of today can learn from Odon's fate
the lesson that victory does not always go to the mighty. On the contrary, even the weak
can win against the strong if they are united, plan their actions well and use their wits
and cunning.
