Mystery -- Chet Gecko

Gifted children who enjoy mysteries will enjoy these clever books.
Publisher Recommended Reading Level: 9-12

 

 



Summary: Chet Gecko is a detective.  He's also in the 4th grade.  And he's a lizard!

Chet loves to solve mysteries. And adults will recognize a rather film noir, Raymond Chandler kind of language in the books.  The titles of the books reflect this influence as well as the clever word play found in the books: Farewell, My Lunch Bag; The Big Nap; The Malted Falcon

These books are funny, witty, and sure to please!
