Summary 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. Only a nerd goes to tutoring classes on weekends and in school holidays. I'm supposed to become a doctor, but I have this deep, dark secret: I just want to be a cartoonist. And all of a sudden my comics are getting noticed at school - I might even get into a special art class and it might just be my chance to show the world my true identity. But I'm not sure Mama will see it quite that way
