Con-Nerd

It's one small step for nerds, one giant leap to being cool

Mama tells me I'm gifted and talented. But I know the truth. I'm just a nerd. Kids call me Con-nerd—half Connor and all nerd. I'm supposed to become a doctor but i have this deep, dark secret: I want to be a cartoonist. And all of a sudden my mega-cool comics are getting noticed at school—I might even get into a special art class . That would sure impress this girl I'm keen on. . . and it might just be my chance to show the world my true destiny. But I'm not sure Mama will see it quite that way. . . Full of the signature laugh-out-loud humor seen in his fabulously funny Thai-riffic!, Oliver Phommavanh has produced yet another totally engaging and hilarious story about finding your own special talents and having the confidence to use them.
