The Chameleon Wore Chartreuse by Bruce Hale

5.0

Another old series in my library that will likely get weeded. I read this aloud to 3rd grade classes and well all enjoyed it. It reminded us a little of Timmy Failure which we read earlier in the year. I enjoyed a lot of the references that 8 year olds will not get or possibly even their parents (Casablanca for example). I like books that allow me to perform different voices and characters. Add in bad jokes and gross situations and it's a crowd pleaser. I don't think the kids will rush to check out the rest of the series, but it kept their attention.
