| Bob Ong Books |
Bob Ong is known for his writings with an element of comedy in them. His readers can easily relate to his works as it replicates Filipino culture and traditions. His writing style is conversational in nature which creates humorous and reflective depictions of life as a typical Filipino. His published books include ABNKKBSNPLAko?!, Bakit Baliktad Magbasa ng Libro ang mga Pilipino?, Ang Paboritong Libro ni Hudas, Alamat ng Gubat, Stainless Longganisa, Macarthur, Kapitan Sino, and Ang mga Kaibigan ni Mama Susan. So far, six of the books he had published have surpassed a quarter of a million copies.
But for those who may not know, Bob Ong is just a pseudonym. It came about when he put up the Bobong Pinoy website years ago while working as a teacher and web developer at the same time. The name just evolved out of playing of words that was the BobOng Pinoy website. Then, someone contacted him after being mistaken as the actual person named Bob Ong. From then on, his famous pseudonym was born. Until now, the real person behind the Bob Ong pseudonym is still not known to many but they still buy his books. This may mean that his identity is not that important, it is his writing that matters.
