Histórias
Indiscutivelmente, a história de Juan Tamad, mais frequentemente contada, ilustra sua máxima preguiça a ponto de estupidez que se torna cômica. Nele, Juan Tamad aparece sobre uma árvore de goiaba com frutas maduras. Sendo prejudicial demais para subir a árvore e tomar os frutos, ele decide deitar sob a árvore e deixar a gravidade fazer seu trabalho. Lá ele permaneceu, esperando a fruta cair em sua boca aberta.

Finally, he comes upon a house where an old woman and her daughter live. Upon seeing the girl, he proposes "Will you marry me?" The girl simply stares at him. He tells himself, "Ah, here is a woman of a few words," and lifts her up and takes her back to his mother. His mother chastises him, for he had brought back a corpse.Livros

Em 1957, Manuel E. Arguilla (autor de como meu irmão Leon trouxe para casa uma esposa) e Lyd Arguilla escreveram os contos e fábulas do livro Filipinas, que incluíam a história de Juan Tamad com ilustrações de Romeo V. Tabuena. Em 1965, o dramaturgo e o editor Alberto Florentino pegou o re-fundamento de Juan Tamad pelo Arguillas e o publicou como histórias de Juan Tamad, parte de uma série de 3 folhetos para jovens leitores. Ilustrado com xilogravuras do falecido J. Elizalde Navarro (pós-manifestado Artista Nacional de Artes Visuais), o livro está fora de impressão e agora é considerado um item de colecionador.
