anina ng mga alon is a creative way of writing about the badjao culture. more people should read this book as this is not something we are usually taught in schools. it will also make you rethink of the urban people's stereotypes of the indigenous group. some chapters felt emotionally heavier, but this is the sad reality that the badjaos face. this book also serves as a reminder that we should pay more respect to our indigenous peoples who not only see nature as it is but as an extension of their lives.
Napakahusay ng pagkakahabi ng bawat salita at pangungusap, kasingganda ng mga tepo ni Unggoh.
Napansin ko rin na naging uniporme at napanatili ni Sir Eugene ang paggamit ng dagat (at mga salitang kaakibat nito) bilang metapora sa kabuuan ng kwento.
Mahusay rin ang gawa ng niredisenyong pabalat ng aklat na ito. Moderno at angkop.
Mamumulat ka sa realidad ng mga kapatid nating IPs, partikular na sa mga Badjao na binansagang mga anak ng dagat, at sa araw-araw nilang kinakaharap na problema (pangtustos, diskriminasyon, displacement, at pangmamaltrato.)
Mahahalina ka sa kwento ni Anina.

thanks to my school’s curriculum, i have been exposed to this wonderful, heart-touching book.
Anina ng mga Alon has filled me with joy, hope, and curiosity, as well as despair. it’s about the life and hardships of a teenager Badjao named Anina, specifically a Sama, whom are also called anak ng dagat. additionally, she explores the reality of our society in today’s age and life as one who experiences severe poverty. at the middle to end part of this story, Anina’s ambition to go back to the true ocean is what moved me the most. she misses the lively waves, corals, clams, everything. the way Anina remained hopeful, even in trying times, is so impressive, especially for her age. if i had the same experience as her, i would’ve easily underestimated myself and gave up. but because of this book, i am inspired to stay positive, despite the challenges i go through, especially in my journey as a student.
the waves or alon are her only friends. she has memorized it’s feelings and emotions. the fact that she was in the presence of these since birth truly amazes me, she was really born to be one with the waves. wow :0
i’d like to applaud Evasco’s immaculate writing skills. he truly knows how to keep his work interesting. i couldn’t stop reading this, oh my. though i may not understand the difficult or deep words in Tagalog, i was still able to comprehend the whole book.
to end, Anina ng mga Alon will really be one of my favorite Filipino books. i will cherish it forever. i love it so so much. :]

Isang magandang representasyon ng mayamang kultura ng katutubong Pilipino.
Inukit at nililok ni Sir Eugene Evasco ang mayabong na pamumuhay ng mga Badjao.
Well written, Evasko has his own way of putting the indigenous Culture into his novel. The selection of words is wonder and poetic.
Evasko Brings me to Mindanao and helps me discover the beauty of the Badjao Tribe, their struggles, and their colors of their daily living.
Sa kabuuan ipinaramdam sa akin ang yakap ng dagat, ang ganda at yumi nito at kung paano ito naging parte ng buhay ng mga karakter sa storya.

Nais kong bigyang hustisya ang maliit na aklat na ito sa pamamagitan ng pagsulat ng isang pagsusuring hango sa ating wika.
Lubos ang aking paghanga sa munting kwentong ito. Nabighani ako sa kuwento ni Anina at sa mga kaugalian ng mga Badjao.
Ang Bongao, Tawi-tawi ay isang lugar na natuklasan ko lamang ngayon, kahit na ako ay isang Pilipino. Nabuksan ang aking mata at isipan sa isang kultura ng mga taong madalas ay inaapi. Natuklasan ko ang talento nila sa pangingisda at paghahabi, at ang kanilang mga kundiman at awitin.
Ang kanilang mga pagsubok na batay sa katotohanan ay sadyang nakalulumbay. Hiling ko na ang librong ito ay isama sa kurikulum ng mga kabataang Pilipino. Tunay na mahalagang matutunan ang iba't ibang kultura sa Pilipinas.

A beautiful story that reads like a song. It paints the sea in brilliant colors. Anina's love and longing for the waves. It is a sad book but heartwarming at the same time. It details fragments of Anina's life while also effectively showing us to the rich Badjao culture that is so often overlooked or forgotten.

Nakakamangha ang paraan ng pagkukwento ni Eugene Evasco. Si Anina ay totoo at ang kaniyang kuwento ay sumasalamin sa maraming realidad ng mga tulad nilang may payak na pamumuhay ngunit napag kakaitan ng maraming oportunidad at ninanakawan ng pagkakataon. Makulay ang librong ito.
