"I love your Book, Bob! I fell in love with it at hindi ko talaga mapigilang magresearch tungkol sa author. Kakaiba kasi ang pagkakasulat - Very simple, typical at hindi superficial. It touches human heart kaya naman makakarelate talaga ang sino mang makabasa... I share your book at lahat ng nakakabasa nito ay tulad ko na tumatawa at ngumingiti nang mag-isa parang isang taong nakadami ng dosage ng drugs. Tuwang-tuwa sila sa Kwentong Chalk.  Kakaiba kasi siya at ibang-iba ang approach at pagkakasulat. May style at uniqueness. Talagang HENYO ANG NAGSULAT NITO!" -- R. Hingaton, Teacher

     "Nakita ko yung sarili ko dun sa libro mo. Para na rin akong tanga kasi tawa ako nang tawa na mag-isa dun sa kwarto ko habang nagbabasa... Babasahin ko na ulit sana yung libro mo for the 2nd time kaso pinahiram ko muna sa dalawa kong kaklase. They've experienced the same effect: lumabas din silang sira-ulo (i mean, lumala pa, thanks to you)... Salamat ng marami sa pagmumulat mo saming kabataan na kahit high school pa lang kami ay malaman na namin ang paghihirap ng pag-aaral. Sana ay ipagpatuloy mo pa ito...."  -- Arianne Angela Solis, Tinig.Com

     "Kakatapos ko lang basahin ang libro mo. Napakahusay at hindi nakakabagot dahil magaling ang timing ng mga patawa.  Ito na marahil ang sagot sa tanong ni Lualhati Bautista: "Bata, Bata...Pa'no Ka Ginawa?" Ngayon ang bata at hindi na ang magulang ang sumagot."  -- Paolo Manalo, Philippines FREE PRESS

     "[Bob ong] has the gift of humor and a sense for the ridiculous.  We enjoyed reading his books."  -- Cirilo F. Bautista, Philippine Panorama

     "Ong's exquisitely Pinoy sense of humor and clever wit will make the book hard to put down.  I advise you to read it over the weekend or you might not finish your office errands."  -- Ronald Lester Leyva, Young and Professional Magazine

     "The language is simple and conversational. What makes the book such a hit is that it’s reality. The scenes hit so close to home that they seem to jump out of the pages. Anyone, absolutely anyone, from your yaya who only finished first grade to your lolo who became a lawyer, can relate to his stories... It’s very, very Filipino.... The book may strike a lot of people as nothing but sheer entertainment. Untrue. Ong cleverly sandwiched very important lessons on our educational system and the people in it between hilarious stories. Readers would have no choice but go on reading because they’re already having too much fun. An ingenious way of getting people to listen.... The book is pure genius... If you’re Filipino, if you want a good laugh, if you’ve ever set foot in school, if you’ve heard of school, read the book. You’ll find a kindred soul in Ong."   --  Pam Pastor, 2BU! Philippine Daily Inquirer
