Publisher Description
New York Times best-selling author of the Sisters Grimm stories, Michael Buckley created a hilarious new storyline with the first book in his NERDS series. In this side-splitting follow-up, Goonies meets James Bond-style hijinks continue with a group of unpopular fifth-graders who run a spy network right under their teachers' noses. Their tech-loving, geeky ways may get them shunned by the "it" crowd, but with a little help from science, these kids' most dweeby qualities become big-time weapons in the fight against super-villains.

— Ty, 2/15/2014 -
" Not as funny as the first. But still good. I am interested to find out what this author witll come up with next in this series. "
— Ragan, 2/11/2014 -
" I really like this book! It's been a long time since I've read NERDS, and these books don't really start out from where they left off. I consider each book a whole new book. The characters I know so far are Duncan and Flinch. Flinch has a problem whenever he eats sugar, which makes him hyper. Flinch also has superhuman abilities. Duncan's nickname is glue stick because he can stick to any surface. I would recommend this book to readers who like humor. "
— Will, 2/11/2014 -
" I actually liked this second in the series better than the first! "
— Angela, 2/5/2014 -
" Good action packed adventure. Michael Buckley has that formula down pat. Fun story good ending. "
— Lorelie, 1/21/2014 -
" It was the most funny book I've read! But four stars because it wasn't filled with lots of action, which I didn't expect. "
— Mohammad, 1/19/2014 -
" Lots of laughs. The first was funnier, but I enjoyed revisiting the characters from a different NERD. I do hope more come out from POVs of even more of the young spies. "
— Stefani, 1/6/2014 -
" Still not a fan of the series, but I have to say I liked this one the most. I liked how it delved into the family life of one of the NERDS members and how they could work through 'life' issues. And I still like that this is a decent series to read and discuss with my 9 year old boy. "
— Kellylynn, 12/24/2013 -
" A book that truly shows the meaning of bravery and the man-up speech. "
— Lydia, 12/17/2013 -

— Cody, 12/13/2013 -

— Kathrine, 11/23/2013 -
" I enjoyed it. Should be a good addition to my classroom library. I'm looking forward to the next two in the series, but will probably wait until the paperback versions to buy them. "

" 3 words: I Love It "
— Chloe, 8/27/2013 -
" Another one? How many of these ARE there? Ugh. I guess it was relatively okay, but Michael Buckley is NOT my favorite author. There was a lot of crying... "He cried" or "She cried". Sloppy, sloppy, sloppy. I DO NOT recommend. "
— Brianna, 6/12/2013 -
" This is a funny book about 5 Nerd spys. I think the dialog between chapters is fun and different. It kind of reminds me of A Series of Unfortunate Events but better. I recommend this to anyone looking for a fun light read with a moral point. "
— Amanda, 5/22/2013 -
" Used this for a mini book report. Learned some new words after looking them up in a dictionary. My Mom had to explain why the subtitle is "M is for Mama's Boy" I am only 9 so still not sure I get it. "
— Tristan, 5/4/2013 -
" These books are a little too juvenile for me. I can see a younger audience really enjoying these. "
— Darin, 2/8/2013 -
" I didn't like this book that much as the 1st one but i figured to still continue with the series.This book kind of boring because there isn't alot of action going on. "
— Ziyan, 12/6/2012 -

" it the best boom ever <3 it "
— Khia, 4/30/2011 -
" This book is right up my son's alley! He has read it at least twice, and we read it aloud at bedtime with all the kids. It is a fun, creative, humorous and positive tale. "
— Heather, 4/8/2011 -
" Good solid humorous series that will appeal to boys and girls. Five "nerdy" students with special abilities are spies with their headquarters set in their school. Gr. 5-7. "
— Shawn, 4/4/2011 -
" LOL, this book was so funny and AMUSING though I preferred the transmissions from the first book but I loved the code breaking stuff and I wish the Hyena was in it more. I didn't expect who the bad guy was and what his mom did, you better read it to find out! "
— Allison, 3/26/2011 -

— Jennifer, 2/1/2011 -
" I liked this one, but i think i liked the first one better because it had Jackson "Braceface" as the protaginist. "
— Alyssa, 1/28/2011 -
" The plot is absolutely ridiculous, but the story definitely succeeds. I liked this one a lot more than the previous book, and the narrator of the audiobook did a highly entertaining job with the characters' voices. "
— Heather, 1/27/2011 -
