Save the Dudes:
A Dude in peril? Operation Destiny is a go!
A ninja stealth picnic? Supervillain jail? Zombie apocalypse anyone? The Dudes are on a mission to save Nate from the peril of private school. But code-names, battle training, and a camp-out of doom don't help as much as you'd think they would. Besides that, the girl next door has a teacup-sized pit bull, Tyler's mom has banned "screen time", and there's the rising cost of fake blood. Can the Dudes use inadvisable stunts and madcap plans to save the day? That's how they roll!
Dudes Take Over:
It’s 5th Grade, and the Dudes are ready to rule the school.
The mission:
Inflate the class economy,
Rock down the walls,
Race to the state capitol, and
Take over the governor’s office.
The Goal: To lay claim to the most powerful dart gun ever invented! You won’t want to miss Deven’s hilarious election speech, Jayden’s Dude-themed birthday bash, or the battle with baby-stealing bandits! You'll crack up when these five friends take on backyard downhill skiing, and a spy mission to the principal's office. Guard your garden gnome because Dudes are taking over!
Summer of the Dudes:
Leave No Dude Behind!
It'll be a summer like no other. Luckily, the Dudes are prepared to take on:
Being Lost at Sea! An Earthquake! Bigfoot! A Robot Invasion! And Teresa's pet Chihuahua!
Don't miss the mayhem!
Another suburban summer with nothing to do…unless you’re the Dudes! Come along as the Dudes become river rafting commandos, pull off a remote-controlled heist, and track a cryptid to its lair. Start your summer off with a laugh in Summer of the Dudes!
WARNING: Evidence suggests that readers may imagine some resemblance between the Dudes’ parents and their own.
About the author
Tyler Reynolds has been entrusted with the awesome duty of preserving the legend of the Dudes' epic adventures for all time. He lives with his Mom, Dad, two brothers, and a dog and spends his non-screen-time with his four best friends.
He wants to point out that the Dudes are straight up fun. His novels aren't about kids with problems, and they are not supposed to teach you something.
His dad wants to point out that anything you DO learn from the Dudes is strictly your own fault.
Emily Kay Johnson lives in the Pacific Northwest with her husband, two boys, and two cats. If you don't know who she is, that's okay. The important people to know about are the Dudes. At least, that's what her writing partner, Tyler, says. Luckily, no madcap plans or crazy schemes EVER happen in Emily's quiet suburb!
Her goal, like that of most writers, is to spend as much of the day in a fantasy world as possible.
