About this ebook

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!

Ratings and reviews

Students in grade 2 to 4 really enjoy this story and the characters. It is so quick that they ask for the second and third book. (I read this book out loud to special ed class for five to ten minutes at a time. It quickly settled them down.)

super awesome!!!!!!!
