NERDS: National Espionage, Rescue, and Defense Society


NERDS: National Espionage, Rescue, and Defense Society by Michael Buckley is a surprising book because you don't know what is going to happen around the next corner. At first Jackson was the most popular kid at school, then he got braces and ended up at the bottom of the heap. But then Jackson's braces start doing some pretty amazing things. Read the book to find out what they can do!

Where the Red Fern Grows

Where the Red Fern Grows by Wilson Rawls is an amazing book because it is so happy in the beginning because he finally gets his dogs, but it is so sad in the end, but I can't tell you why. You HAVE to read this book for yourself. It is so amazing.

No Limits - The Will to Succeed

No Limits - The Will to Succeed by Michael Phelps with Alan Abrahamson is a book about Michael Phelps and his eight gold medals in swimming. He was the first person in swimming history to earn eight gold medals in one Olympics. A lot of people didn't believe he could earn the eight gold medals in one Olympics, but he did it. My favorite part of the the book was where he beat Cavic (pronouced Chavich) from Serbia, by 1/100 of a second in the 100 meter butterfly finals. It was amazing. I recommend this book to anybody who wants to do something big.
