Attack of the Tagger by Wendelin Van Draanen

I kind of love Shredderman. He's the epitome of truth and justice. What kid doesn't dream that their antagonists will finally get their just deserts in the forms of public humiliation and appropriate punishment?

Meh -- Shredderman has a clever narrator, a nerdy little guy who's tired of being bullied, so he uses his skills and talents to create a website where he ridicules the bully...cyberbullying? It skirts a fine line. I was never at ease with that aspect of the story or the fact Nolan's teacher knows, gives him private information, and considers himself Nolan's 'sidekick'. We don't need depictions of teachers in kids books like this.

I may be too hard on the book and author, but the times may have twisted in a way that makes this un-funny.
