Plot

Nolan Byrd, a shy eighth grader, is assigned a multimedia project by his teacher, Mr. Green. Nolan decides to do an exposé on schoolmate Bubba Bixby, who bullies him and many other students. Taking the pseudonym "Shredderman", Nolan films Bubba bullying other students and uploads the footage to a website, www.shreddermanrules.com, causing Bubba to face discipline from the principal, Dr. Voss. Nolan later begins filming the school's faculty, including Dr. Voss, and they too are exposed for similarly cruel actions.

Nolan discovers that Bubba's father, Bob, the CEO of a waste management company whom Dr. Voss is close with, is planning to dump sewage in a local pond under the guise of an urban renewal project. Nolan posts the evidence and word spreads quickly, inspiring Nolan to sabotage the signing of the deed. Nolan's father, a local journalist, begins investigating the project. In retaliation, Bob and Bubba attempt to discredit Shredderman by making trouble and blaming him. They steal a guinea pig named Claudette from Nolan's crush, Isabel, but Nolan is able to retrieve her from the pet shop.

On the day of the signing, Nolan manages to expose Bob despite Dr. Voss' attempts to stop him. Bob is arrested and sentenced to community service at the school, while Dr. Voss is fired. Nolan's father, after the successful publication of his story, heads to Britain for a bigger story. Shredderman becomes famous, though Nolan continues to conceal his identity and successfully asks Isabel out on a date. Claudette is revealed to be pregnant, though Isabel does not know why.
