Van Draanen, Wendelin - Secret Identity (Shredderman 1)
Illus. by Brian Biggs, c2004, 138 p.
Description - Realistic Fiction (First Person), Intermediate Grade
Chapter Book
Review - What a great book! Nolan (aka Nerd) Byrd adopts a secret
identity in order to seek revenge on the 5th grade class bully...Alvin
(aka Bubba) Bixby. The story is a little far fetched, but believable and
the outcome will make you want to stand up and cheer for Nolan and
his terrific teacher. The pen and ink illustrations are a plus.
