Book 1: Secret Identity


Alvin Bixby: Hulking, knuckles of steel, hideous breath, foul temper. Kids call him: Bubba.

Nolan Byrd: Puny, power walker, math genius, can't keep shoes tied. Kids call him: Nerd.

Bubba has been the bane of Nolan's existence for five long years. So when Mr. Green asks the class to become reporters, Nolan decides he'll write an exposé — on Bubba. He doesn't want to sign his name to it (that'd be suicidal), so Nolan creates a secret identity for himself on the Internet. He launches Shredderman.com as a place where truth and justice prevail-and bullies get what's coming to them.
This hilariously triumphant story is for any kid who's ever dreamed of unleashing their own inner superhero!

Book 2: Attack of the Tagger

Nolan Byrd single-handedly saved his school from the bullydom of Alvin "Bubba" Bixby. He posted proof of Bubba's exploits on the Web at Shredderman.com. Now Shredderman is the school hero! But since Shredderman's identity is a secret, everyone still treats Nolan like ... a nerd.

But inside this nerd beats a superhero's heart — one dedicated to truth and justice. So when a vandal spray-paints graffiti around town — and even on his teacher's van — Nolan decides that tracking down the tagger is a job for Shredderman.

But while he's trying to trap the tagger, the tagger is trying to pin the blame on Shredderman! Can Nolan turn the tables back around before his secret identity is revealed?

Book 3: Meet the Gecko

Even superheroes have problems. That’s what Nolan discovers when he meets Chase Morton, the boy who plays his favorite TV superhero on The Gecko and Sticky. Chase is being hounded by a sleazy tabloid reporter who is evil! Sneaky! A liar! So Nolan vows to expose the truth on Shredderman.com. After all, superheroes have to stick together in the fight for truth and justice. Oh, yeah!

Book 4: Enemy Spy

Shredderman.com just made the national news! Everyone is talking about the new cyber-superhero. Oh yeah!

But now people are dying to know who is behind Shredderman.com. Reporters are snooping all over Cedar Valley! Oh no!

Nolan's parents and even his sidekick, Mr. Green, think he should lay low for a while. But being Shredderman is the best thing that's ever happened to Nolan. It's so much better than being Byrd-the-Nerd. Plus, Nolan's just stumbled across what might be a real spy-ring! How can Shredderman not try to fight it?

But some problems are too big for even a superhero to handle. Sometimes the mask gets in the way. Will Nolan's quest for truth and justice mean he has to give up his secret identity? Can he become a superhero in real life?
