N.E.R.D.S. is a children's pentalogy written by Michael Buckley and illustrated by Ethen Beavers. The series tells the story of a fictional spy agency and its agents—children who have their "nerdy" characteristics upgraded into a tool that they can use to fight crime. The series includes five books, each told from a different agent's perspective. The series lasted from 2009 to 2013. As of 2022, an animated show based on the series is in development with Lisa Zusmer DelPrete, DelZus Productions LLC.
