If you put all the books
you own on the street outside your house, you might expect them to
disappear in a trice. But one man in Manila tried it - and found that
his collection grew.
Hernando Guanlao is a sprightly man in his early 60s, with one abiding passion - books.
They're his pride and joy, which is just as well because, whether he likes it or not, they seem to be taking over his house.
Guanlao, known by his nickname Nanie, has set up an informal
library outside his home in central Manila, to encourage his local
community to share his joy of reading.
