The Ben Braver series by Marcus Emerson is a three-book middle grade series about a boy who learns he has superpowers. The Super Life of Ben Braver (2018) introduces Ben as he discovers his abilities and enrolls in a school for kids with powers. The series continues with Ben Braver and the Incredible Exploding Kid (2019) and wraps up with Ben Braver and the Vortex of Doom (2020).
Published by Roaring Brook Press, the Ben Braver books represent Emerson’s move from self-publishing to a traditional publisher. The series combines superhero tropes with school-based humor, targeting the same middle grade audience that reads his Diary of a 6th Grade Ninja books but with a more polished format and wider distribution.
