Editorial Reviews

From School Library Journal

Grade 2–4—Fifth grader Nolan Byrd, otherwise known as the cyber-superhero Shredderman, is at it again. In Wendelin Van Draanen's sequel (Knopf, 2006) to Secret Identity (Knopf, 2004), someone is spray painting the town with "dumb baby" faces and Nolan is determined to unmask the culprit. Armed with a digital camera, his bike, and his smarts, Shredderman comes up with a plan to end the Tagger's tricks. Eleven-year-old Daniel Young does an excellent job of bringing Nolan and all of his quirks to life, and provides a unique voice for each character. Listeners will be cheering for more truth, justice, and Shredderman!—Deanna Romriell, Salt Lake City Public Library, UT

From AudioFile

Narrator Daniel Young is nothing short of awesome in this second Shredderman story. The problem this time around is graffiti, which is appearing all over Cedar Valley, including the elementary school and faculty members' cars. Nolan Byrd, self-proclaimed nerd, has a whole separate identity as a cyberhero. Nolan welcomes the challenge to put a stop to the vandalism and is soon deep into searching for the culprit, much to his overprotective mother's dismay. In addition to getting youthful emotion and rivalry down perfectly, the 11-year-old narrator is also winning as Mr. Green, a guitar-strumming teacher, and Dr. Voss, the uptight school principal. Kids will love this true-to-life story and be engaged by Young's narration. S.G.B.
