I can remember when I was really young in middle school back in the early 90′s my teacher made us read a book called the computer nut. It was a book that first came out in 1984 and it is a book about a computer girl nerd that is recieving hidden secret computer messages on her computer from an alien from outerspace that claims that he controls and monitors all computers on the planet earth. It really is a good book to read for kids and even some young adults can really enjoy it to. It is an awesome book and even though the plot and storyline is a little slow it really has a very interesting twist towards the end. This book was written before people had the internet in their homes and it was written at atime when most people did not have computers in their houses and I’m sure the computers that were popular at the time when this book first came out was the Apple IIe and the Apple II and computer were not very advanced back then when this book was first published. But it really was a good book when I was younger and it was how I started to become a computer geek. But of course this book was written in 1984 and I did not read it or hear about it until almost ten years later.
