About this ebook
Dave Sanchez is an average boy with an after-school job and a pet gecko named Sticky. All very normal—until the day Sticky talks!
Sticky tells Dave a wild tale of a former life of crime, searching for Aztec gold with a treasure hunter named Damien Black, and of a magical Aztec wristband with shiny gold power ingots that will give the wearer super powers. Dave doesn’t believe a word—until Sticky shows him the wristband.
But while Sticky managed to escape with the wristband, Damien Black has the power ingots. So the lizard and treasure hunter each have something the other wants . . . very badly.
Filled with wild adventures, larger-than-life characters, and snappy-funny dialogue, The Gecko and Sticky books are perfect for young superheroes everywhere.
Don't miss the other Gecko & Sticky adventures:
1. The Villain's Lair,
2. The Greatest Power,
3. Sinister Substitute, and
4. The Power Potion.

- Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5'"It happened one afternoon when Dave was home alone. Sticky simply crawled onto his shoulder and said, "Buenas tardes, senor!""What?" Dave said, looking at the gecko with wide eyes.'Thus begins Dave and Sticky the Gecko's wild and adventurous relationship. Sticky, on the run from the diabolical treasure hunter Damien Black, outs himself as a talking gecko in the hopes that Dave will help him to get "that wicked ratero Damien Black"! Van Draanen's new series (a spin off of Shredderman: Meet the Gecko) is full of humor and adventure that will keep you turning the pages past lights out!
