The Computer's Nerd

Rating:
Summary: Every school library should have a copy of this book.
Review: Arthur Dingle was the smartest boy in school, but his appearance screamed the word NERD! He was bullied daily by three schoolmates named Matt, Ned, and Victor. He hated the three guys, but had no idea how to fight back. Let's face it, Arthur did not know HOW to fight and the odds were 3-to-1. So what to do?

Then his parents gave him a computer! The first thing Arthur noticed was a file called THE GAME. Once he opened the file, The Game seemed to come alive. It knew all about Arthur and his problems. In fact, The Game could read his mind! The Game allowed him to get even with the mean kids.

Problem was that The Game was not exactly user-friendly. Arthur found himself digging a deep hole of lies and deceit. Arthur had to somehow win the awful game or The Game may delete him!

No matter your age, be it nine or thirty-nine, you will find yourself riveted by this story! It delivers a powerful message on right and wrong, as well as, the possible consequences of the choices students make in today's world. This book should be part of the "required reading list" of schools! HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!

Summary: cute cover, mediocre story
Review: I've been studying nerds and the stereotype for several years so I try to read everything out there- including this. While the story has a very nice message, in fact, one nicely worded too, you have get through 130 pages of cliched and corny story to get to it. Oh well....

Summary: The Computer's Nerd...
Review: When Aurthur is being bullied at school, he finds a way for revenge. However, he will soon learn that "The Game" not only gives him the revenge on his bullies, but it will, a little at a time, make him feel that things only got worse instead of better.

As soon as I begin reading The Computer's Nerd I was instantly drawn into the story and characters. As each chapter ended, I found myself in the next chapter; I wanted to know "what would happen next"! Needless to say, I ended up reading the whole book before I put it down.

If you're looking for a good book that you can curl up with, and a book that will keep you "wanting to know more", then order your copy of The Computer's Nerd today. This is a truly wonderful book!
