Review:
Praise for the Gecko & Sticky books: "A dastardly good read. Written with gleeful wit, rapid-fire pacing and snappy dialogue." -- Kirkus Reviews "Fearsome is rarely this much fun. Van Draanen has a super imagination, to which she never applies the brakes. Readers who enjoy loony adventures will love this ride." -- Children's Literature "Consistently entertaining . . . reaching a frenetic level of energy and comedy as the story's tension builds." -- Booklist "Peppered with exaggerated alliteration and the excitable lizard's Spanish-tinged 'Stickynese, ' the wisecracking narrative bounds from one slapstick scenario to another." -- Publishers Weekly
About the Author:
WENDELIN VAN DRAANEN spent many years as a teacher before devoting herself to writing full-time. She loves reading, running, writing, and rock 'n roll! Her books for younger readers include The Gecko & Sticky quartet and The Shredderman quartet. For middle graders check out the Sammy Keyes mysteries and Swear to Howdy. For tweens and teens, look for Flipped, The Running Dream, Confessions of a Serial Kisser, and Runaway.
