About this series
Chet Gecko doesn’t believe in the supernatural. His idea of voodoo is his mom’s 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?
“The zany text reads like a mixture of stand-up comedy, Raymond Chandler mysteries, old films, and a fourth grader on an overdose of sugar.”—School Library Journal
The Chet Gecko Mysteries are . . .
“Zesty and entertaining.”—The Bulletin
“Fodder for budding criminologists and stand-up comedians . . . Sassy.”—School Library Journal
