Nyla sets out to win her school's bird watching competition, while balancing old friends with new in this heartfelt debut.
Nyla Braun has always been called a nerd at her Philadelphia school. But that hasn t stopped her from pursuing her nerdy hobbies, especially when she has best friend Tasha by her side. When a birding tournament between Nyla s class and a class from a suburban school is announced, Nyla sees her chance to get the respect she deserves. If they win, that is. The Burb Birders will be tough competition.
With the contest underway, Nyla soon catches the attention of the most popular girl in class, who also wants to win, setting off a chain of small disasters as Nyla tries to balance old friends and new and the pressure to be cool when you really just want to be yourself.
Told with warmth and gentle humor, debut author Jennifer Ann Richter s Bird Nerd combines a deep love of nature and birding with the story of a young girl learning to discover her own confidence and values.
