“Fourth-grade gumshoe Chet Gecko takes on his most baffling case yet . . . Clever, good fun” from the author of The Big Nap and the Clark the Shark books” (Kirkus Reviews).

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
