Inspired by a favorite teacher and a class assignment, Nolan thinks up a way to teach Bubba a lesson. Will his plan work or will Bubba catch on to his plan and terrorize people even more?  tpedroza | Dec 6, 2009 |  I liked a lot of things about this book. Great characters, great illustrations, appealing for reluctant readers, and I liked the way that the main character Nolan stands up for himself. However, I do feel that Shredderman is rewarded for cyberbullying Bubba, which is a message that troubles me. I'm curious to see how Shredderman uses his powers for GOOD in the rest of the series. Various | Jun 24, 2009 | This book certainly surprised me as it was much funnier than I had expected. Bullying is a major trend in Elementary/Middle School and therefore, it is definitely a great read for such students. It sets a great example for the reasons not to bully, but also provides positive ways in dealing with one. I probably would not assign it in class, but recommend it for outside reading. LanaLee123 | Jun 8, 2009 | Nolan 'The Nerd' is being picked on by the school bully, Bubba Bixby, but who's not. Their teacher gives them an assignment, to interview a community member. This gives Nolan an idea...he is going to do his assignment on Bubba. He creates a secret identity and a website, thats purpose, is to catch Bubba in the act of bullying. He hopes that the teachers and school staff will do something about it. He's tired of being pushed around. He uses technology to his benefit. amycampbell | May 27, 2009 | You shred Nolan, you shred.

| Book description |
|
Wendelin Van Draanen, author of How I Survived Being a Girl, and the super-cool Sammy Keyes mysteries series, has all sorts of fun here, taking a traditional bully-comeuppance tale and adding some high-tech cyber twists. Her descriptions prove as playful as ever, "Bubba Bixby's got rocky knuckles. And killer breath;" and her goofy cast is made even more memorable by the lively work of first-time kids' book illustrator Brian Biggs. (Ages 9 to 12) --Paul Hughes
