Review

"Those who haven't read a 'Chet Gecko' mystery don't know what they're missing."--School Library Journal

Product Description

In these three wisecracking, sidesplitting mysteries from Chet Gecko's tattered casebook, the fourth-grade detective and his punning mockingbird partner, Natalie Attired, foil bad guys and evildoers . . . and still have time for a helping or two of stinkbug pie.
