Famous Anonymous 2: Undercover Summer

The second book in a new series about neighborhood friends who find sudden fame with a series of viral videos… only no one knows who they really are. Hannah Montana for the TikTok generation.

School’s out, but summer break isn’t much of a vacation for Sophie, Gus, Luke, and Harper. They’re too busy making new videos for Cre8. They’ve got to get the clicks and keep their massive fan base!

But as they balance video production with the usual host of summer activities – and try to keep the neighborhood sleuth, Olivia, off their case -- a competing social media platform threatens to eclipse Cre8 and their entire following. 

When another group of Valleyville kids becomes the newest online sensation, the crew must confront the differences between being anonymously famous versus famous-famous. They too could get everything they want -- starring roles, more friends, freedom to break out of certain roles they feel stuck in -- if they just unmasked themselves. But is that worth it? 

This question, and more, will be answered in this fun and fast-paced sequel perfect for kids new to phones and social media, and anyone who’s ever dreamed of becoming an influencer.Morgan Baden is the co-author (with her husband, acclaimed YA novelist Barry Lyga) of The Hive, a YA novel called “Brilliant!” by Walter Mosley.
