tagger

__ Attack of the Tagger __ By: Wendelin Van Draanen Someone is spray painting graffiti all over Cedar Valley and its up to fifth grader Nolan Byrd, also known as Shredderman, to expose the vandal.

Editorial Reviews ** Grade 3-6–Nolan's life has not been the same since he invented Shredderman. Sure, he's still called "nerd," and he avoids running into bully Bubba Bixby, but now he's secretly a cyber-hero. As such, Nolan knows he's the man for the job when graffiti is spray-painted around Cedar Valley and the culprit cannot be caught. However, things do not go as planned as Shredderman is accused of being the tagger, and he is under the clock to see that truth and justice prevail before his true identity comes to light. Van Draanen delivers an entertaining sequel to //Secret Identity// (Knopf, 2004), packed with plenty of action and humor to keep kids, especially reluctant readers, turning the pages and rooting for Nolan. As in the first book, Biggs's black-and-white illustrations capture the humor and action of the straightforward plot.//–Christine McGinty, Albany Public Library, NY//
