BEST BOOK IN THE WORLD I LOVE THE TEACHERS LOUNGE!!

One star for the first 2/5, three stars for the last 3/5. It's been a while since I've got so close to just discarding a book not even halfway through but all in all, I'm glad I persevered - the last half, with less toilet humour and more plot, and with at least a couple of the characters developing some (if vague) actual characteristics beyond a description of their looks, was considerably better.Still, even with all that, I have to go with "it was OK" rather than "liked it" as my rating. Main

I liked this book because it was a re-read and I was able to focus on the little details.

NERDS is a very silly, very easy-to-read spy sendup aimed at young boys. It's fast and funny, and plotted like a Roger Moore-era Bond, with all of the cliques tacked onto fifth graders. It's probably not sophisticated enough for older readers, but would be a great book for reluctant readers, particularly young boys interested in action movies, comic books, and secret agents.

Too ridiculous for me to enjoy, and that's saying a lot. Lots of slapstick-y humor.

This was sooo cute! Why didn’t they have books like that when I was a kid? 😝

Can Jackson Jones survive falling to the bottom of the social ladder after geting a face full of braces AND losing his spot on the football team? Well, maybe- as part of an elite, top-secret spy group... there'll be action, adventure, cool gadgets, and nerds? What to do when your curiousity sends you to the inner sanctum of a group that can save the world- by using the very "nerdiness" that causes them, in their drab elementary school lives, to be picked on and avoided? Funny, action filled, gre...

It's about a boy (called Jackson), he used to be really popular, well, before he got his SUPER BRACES!!! Jackson Jones finds himself in a secret lab under the school and it's group NERDS! National Espionage, Rescue and Defence Society. Join the NERDS in their adventures to save the world from evil doctor Jigsaw and his to-be assassin, Mindy, or as she likes likes to put it 'The Hyena'. Mindy is a beautiful, 12 year old girl who's mum-when she was 7- packed up all their things and entered her int...

This was a great book. If you like spy novels than you might want to pick this book up. The main character Jackson thought he had life easy, he was the football team as their star quarterback, he was popular. Then things took a change. This book can leave you on so many cliffhangers. It's just the best book ever.

Jackson is a popular 5th grader when tragedy strikes-tragedy in the form of braces. He quickly sees his social status change from king of the mountain to reject in record time. Soon afterwards, Jackson stumbles upon an elite team of secret agents in his school. Amazingly, they are a bunch of the 'nerds' Jackson used to make fun of. Jackson joins their ranks as they hunt the Hyena, a master criminal with an evil plan. I thought this was a cute, fast read. In our book club, we had good discussion

Me and a couple friends were roaming the book fair for the best book we could find. Besides from a couple of Justin Bieber books, we found N.E.R.D.S. When I first saw it I thought it was too good to be true! Because this cover was amazingly funny, and so was the book. Michael Buckley created a masterpiece. The plot idea was good and original that, surprisingly, kept you guessing. But what made this book funny was the characters. The characters in this book all have some problems that make them n...

When grade school football hero Jackson goes in for a dental appointment and gets braces, he finds his popularity in free fall and his school life drastically changed. Jackson turns to spying on friends to discover why some are popular and some are nerds and discovers that his school conceals an elite group of spies, the National Espionage, Rescue and Defense Society. When he sneaks into their headquarters, he gains superhero powers and becomes a member of the N.E.R.D.S. I enjoyed watching Jacks...

How would you like to be the star of the schools football and the most popular kid at school.Well that was who Jackson Jones was at Nathan Hale Elementary School from N.E.R.D.S by Michael Buckley. Jackson was only friends with the popular kids from school and would bully all the other kids. Until one day he went to the dentist to get his teeth whitened and the dentist found out he had two sets of teeth and had to get a large head brace for his teeth. All of his friends stopped talking to him. So...

Received in a giant stack of youth books from a cousin who was heading off to college. DS#1 (nearly 7) read this on his own -- his first completed chapter book. (He had previously tried to read Moonraker, which inexplicably disappeared shortly after he mentioned to me that he was reading it. I need to wade through the bookshelves and make sure dicier volumes are inaccessible.) Anyway, DS#1 liked it a lot, and gives it many stars.

I really loved the book N.E.R.D.S(bad acronym) by Micheal Buckley. This book is about this child named Jackson Jones, who is a bully, the most popular kid in school, who somehow stumbles in a secret spy organization. The organization is called, National Espionage, Rescue and Defense Society, N.E.R.D.S. for short. Jackson must go through all his troubles at school, and braces, and befriend his fellow spies, all while he is losing his grades and popularity, and mind. I would recommend this book t

This was a great book.It had mystery, suspense and action.That is like, all you need in a book.This book made me laugh at some parts but this book is mostly an action-packed book.I would recommend this book to anybody who likes comedy and action books.

"That's your problem, Braceface. You judge others by what they look like. You've spent your life putting people into little categories-nerd, geek, athlete, cheerleader, weakling-and you can't imagine they might be more than what you think. People are always more than what they appear." -Matilda (a.k.a. Wheezer)Jackson Jones rules elementary school. He's the star of the football team, receives decent grades, has a high popularity status, and a group of his own to call his friends. He spends

I recently read a book called N.E.R.D.S. by Michael Buckley. It is about a group of kids who have special ability that enable them to be spies. It’s a pretty good book, actually, I love it. I have also read Michael Buckley’s other series, the Sisters Grimm. Back to the book. There is also another book in the series (M is for mama’s boy) that came out in September. Also in the book, the whole is built for the kids, and kids were selected because grown-up agents didn’t know technology enough, so k...

This book is about a group of unpopular fifth graders who run a spy network from inside their school and they have a lot of exciting and fun adventures as spys. The title stands for National Espionage Rescue and Defence Society, which I found creative and i found the book pretty interesting and intreaguing

This book has adventure and plain fun. When you see that this normally outcast group you will never look at nerds the same. This whole comes to the saying 'smart is the new cool.' This book is great for young readers that are a little ahead on the reading scale because, it is quite long and middle school content. Meaning that elementary kids don't really have nerds. Each character is cleverly structured to fit the story. There are so many onomatopoeias that make the story lively and fun.The one
