âFourth-grade gumshoe Chet Gecko takes on his most baffling case yet . . . Clever, good funâ from the author of The Big Nap and the Clark the Shark booksâ (Kirkus Reviews).  Chet Gecko doesnât believe in the supernatural. His idea of voodoo is his momâs cockroach ripple ice cream. But when a teacher reports seeing a monster by the light of a full moon, it falls to Chet and his sleek-winged partner, Natalie Attired, to answer the burning question: Is this the work of a vicious, supernatural werehamster on the loose? Or just another science fair project gone wrong?  âThe zany text reads like a mixture of stand-up comedy, Raymond Chandler mysteries, old films, and a fourth grader on an overdose of sugar.ââSchool Library Journal  The Chet Gecko Mysteries are . . . âZesty and entertaining.ââThe Bulletin âFodder for budding criminologists and stand-up comedians . . . Sassy.ââSchool Library Journal âA choice series for reluctant readers.ââBooklist
