The Gecko & Sticky are a fabulous crime-fighting duo! This quartet of funny adventures will appeal to fans of superheroes both young and old, and would make terrific all-family read-alouds.
Dave Sanchez's most despised teacher, a gleeful frog dissector named Ms. Veronica Krockle, is absent. Her students are psyched! But Sticky is suspicious. Especially when the substitute teacher turns out to be Damien Black—dastardly treasure hunter and master of disguise!
If Damien Black is in school, does that mean he’s behind Ms. Krockle’s absence? Could she have been kidnapped? Stashed away in the Black mansion? Oh yeah, that sounds about right. Dave and Sticky realize that if they want to get Damien Black out of their school, they'll have to rescue the horrid Ms. Veronica Kronckle.

2. The Greatest Power,
3. Sinister Substitute, and
4. The Power Potion

      Marc Cashman and Van Draanen are back at it again as Dave--aka the Gecko--and his sidekick, Sticky--an actual gecko. Cashman clearly enjoys his role as narrator as he brings these stories and their characters to life. His pleasure is evident as he delivers the fast-paced yet easy-to-follow humor, antics, and adventures. Sticky's Spanish-laden accent sparkles with an additional fervor all will enjoy. In this fourth installment, the Gecko and Sticky find themselves in heaps of trouble when they intercept a package with a mysterious potion meant for the evil Damien Black. J.K.R.
