"I chuckled aloud so often when I ‘read' this book … ‘When I Was A Kid' had insinuated itself into someone else's imagination. Many others who've had a childhood, I'm sure, will fall to its charm.” SH Lim, TimeOut Kuala Lumpur
“He writes about everyday childhood things many of us would instantly recognize... Boey's cartoons will make you laugh out loud and make you cry.” May, Outstation
“Boey Cheeming's When I Was A Kid is an example of how simple lines and words are all you need to tell a tale. ...Combined with hindsight, a wry eye and the impious touch of his pen, he revisits his “mundane” growing-up years and manages to make it more interesting.” Alan Wong, The Malaysian Insider
