The Mystery of Mr. Nice by Bruce Hale

lulurocks101's review

I wanted to revisit a series I loved as a kid (I def think I’ve read this one before) and this warmed my heart❤️ like why was this humorous?! Chet was lowkey annoying, but I think that’s his vibe. I did get a little saddened as I read bc I was trying to find too realistic answers to the mystery and I struggled to imagine the characters in my head as cartoons without the drawings. Maybe I need to read more children’s lit...

One of my favorite series as a kid.

This is definitely one of the best Chet Gecko books. I will explain why by listing two of my all-time favorite Chet Gecko similes, both of which appear in this book:

"As I approached the principal's office, my heart beat like a hyperactive octopus with a drum set."

and

"I crawled for [the window] as fast as I could, like an ancient inchworm with arthritis."

Oh, Chet Gecko.... I love him so much.
