Books with title Trouble Is My Beeswax: A Chet Gecko Mystery by Hale, Bruce

In these two wisecracking, sidesplitting mysteries from Chet Gecko's tattered casebook, the fourth-grade detective and his punning mockingbird partner, Natalie Attired, keep the peace at Emerson Hicky Elementary. In the first, the two sleuths blow the lid off a cheating ring in Mr. Ratnose's classroom, and in the second, they track down the winning ticket for the biggest, chocolatiest, most gut-busting dessert ever, the Malted Falcon. Danger has never been so delicious!

When it comes to splitting dessert, Chet Gecko may cheat a little, but who’s going to complain if Chet’s half is more like two-thirds? He’s never been good at math. Still, there’s a big difference between sneaking a bigger slice of stinkbug pie and sneaking the answers to Mr. Ratnose’s history test. When a cheating ring is suspected at Emerson Hicky Elementary, Chet takes on the case as a matter of honor. Or of stupidity. It’s so hard to tell the difference sometimes.
