Overview

Nick Townley has lived his entire life--all eleven years--at Black Butte Ranch, nestled in the foothills of the snow-capped Cascade Mountains. While his parents push him to study, practice sports, and make friends, Nick prefers to retreat into his superhero universe and create exciting Adventures of Click comics. When a string of robberies threatens Dad's job, forcing them to move across the country, Nick's world implodes. He loves his home, and what will he do about the $237,000 in cash under his bed that Great Gramp gave him before he died? Desperate to stop the move, Nick steps off his comic book pages and ventures into the night as Click, an undercover superhero. Catching thieves would be a lot easier if he had actual superpowers. When three new kids discover his identity and want to join him, Nick vows to stay undercover . . . until he realizes even a superhero needs friends. But can he ask them to put their lives in danger to save his home? What would Click do?

Author Information

Sandy Grubb has been writing children's stories since she was a child herself. Her debut novel, Just Like Click, won the esteemed Kraken Book Prize, recognizing finely crafted middle grade fiction. When not at home in Lake Oswego, Oregon, Sandy and her family can often be found exploring nature trails and playing badminton at Black Butte Ranch. As a full-time audiobook narrator, Christian Leatherman has been fortunate enough to perform in many genres-fantasy, romance, sci-fi, nonfiction, and mystery/thriller-to bring life to complex worlds and characters ranging from a Southern android assistant to an early twentieth-century kid from Brooklyn who ran away from home. He never would have guessed that his previous life as a forensic science student and a beer/malt biologist might have prepared him with the medical and forensic jargon all too common in police-procedural thrillers and dense nonfiction but, here we are! Though tasting beer for a living was enjoyable, Christian couldn't ignore his creative voice screaming at him to utilize the acting and vocal performance chops he had developed but put aside for far too long. Making the leap into audiobook narration was the missing catalyst to fulfilling his true artistic passion: performing engaging stories and breathing life into beautifully-written characters who yearn for a voice. With an enthusiasm for taking on multiple genres, unique vocal variation, and a youthful sound, Christian can't wait to energize your next great story!
