The highly anticipated sequel to Ungifted from #1 New York Times bestselling author Gordon Korman.

Donovan Curtis has never been what anyone would call “gifted.” But his genius friend Noah Youkilis is actually supergifted, with one of the highest IQs around. After years at the Academy for Scholastic Distinction, all Noah dreams of is the opportunity to fail if he wants to. And he’s landed in the perfect place to do it—Donovan’s school.

Almost immediately, Noah finds himself on the wrong side of cheerleading captain Megan Mercury and alpha jock Hash “Hashtag” Taggart. Sticking up for Noah lands Donovan in the middle of a huge feud with Hashtag. He’s told to stay away from the sports star—or else.

That should be the end of it, but when a freak incident suddenly makes Donovan a hero, he can’t tell anyone about it since Hashtag is involved. So Noah steps in and becomes “Superkid.” Now he’s gone from nerd to titan at school. And it may have gone more than a little bit to his head.

This funny and heartwarming sequel to Ungifted, which has become a word-of-mouth hit, cleverly sends up our ideas about intelligence, heroism, and popularity.

Supergifted is a book about this boy who is bullied by some other boys for some secret. I have not read this book yet but I have read the previews and it sounds like a great book.

Donavon's life couldn't get any better. He only has a super strict brother in law who relates everything he does to the Marines, and a newborn niece screaming at five in the morning. On top of that, he has to protect his friend from the Academy, Noah Youkilis, from the bullies who torment him because of his 206 point IQ. Just when things couldn't get any worse Donavon ends up saving the head cheerleader's house from burning. That would be a good thing but Donovan was not supposed to be on that street on account of a certain command from a certain Marine officer. When the town finds out about the Superkid who saved a family, Donovan has to try not to let them know who did it. This is the companion book to the Ungifted book. I really liked it and thought that it was a good story.

It was a good book. It show 2 friends who are smart, one is super gifted. being smart is not everything, it shows how they can get into and out of trouble at school.

The Gordon Korman has the most incredible books in the world. He wrote so many books and they are so incredible. I really wish I had all of his books, I could practicly read all of them in a day. Books are the most awesome thing in the world real.

This book was part of the Battle of the Books competition and quickly became everyone on the teams favorite book. We all loved how we could relate to it, without it being sad and or disappointing!

This book is super funny and exciting at the same time. It is about this boy. This boy is really talented, but he is always bullied all the time. He has a best friend who always stands up for him and two other friends who get him in trouble later in the story. The two friends want to share the piece of information that the boy's friend doesn't want him to share. They make a deal and the boy has to create a app to make the two firnd's grades go higher and because of that app, the boy had to go to another school. The school found out who created the app and the boy was sent to another school to go to.

I really love this book because it all starts with a genius named Noah and then the story gets more twistier reminding me of the times when it was hard to choose which path to follow!

Great sequel to "Ungifted"! Noah, Donovan, and Brad have changed a lot since ungifted. And some how Noah becomes super kid. Why does get all the credit if Donovan did it? Help solve the mystery when you read the book.

OMG! DogoBooks mailed this to me, and I read it. Lets just say, this is the second book. The first book was so amazing, it almost made me cry. Then, when I got the second book (this) I did cry! It is super amazing, and I cannot wait until there is another one of these books. It is such an amazing book, it is probably one of my favorites (in the top 10, of course) less better than harry Potter and Warriors, but is still really amazing. Probably the best book I read from the Summer Reading List.

Supergifted is a pretty good book. It’s the sequel to Ungifted, which was an amazing book. This books focuses more on Noah’s life in average school. It proves to be very difficult for him to ace his classes, despite his 206 IQ, and is even advised to take remedial classes. Donovan is always there to help him, but he’s also always getting himself into insane situations. Just like in Ungifted, Donovan gets himself and Noah into a situation so crazy yet so possible you will be shocked. With various perspectives on the same events from interesting characters, this book is well-written. But before you read this, read Ungifted to get the full scoop!
