About the Book
Stinky Cecil is back in a hilarious new adventure!
Cecil and his amphibian pals are taking a well-deserved break after saving their pond from freeway construction when a third-grade science class shows up for a field trip. The kids nab Cecil for their classroom terrarium!
At first Cecil is terrified, but he quickly gets used to being a class pet. That is, until Nesbit the chameleon shows up. Nesbit wants to be just like Cecil, so he matches his colors and follows him all around the terrarium. He’s driving Cecil crazy!
Meanwhile, Cecil’s pals back at the pond are planning a rescue mission using Jeff the hamster’s radio controlled helicopter. But what will they do about Nesbit?
Join the whole pond gang for this second delightful environmental romp.
My Take on the Book
I believe you and your child will enjoy this book which is written like a comic book. It is colorful and the story will keep you engaged to the very end. There is adventure as Cecil , the toad, is captured by children in a science class and put in the classroom terrarium. Here Cecil meets two other animals. Of course his friends want to rescue him and thus the mission commences.
Along the way, the author has added information about the environment which fits in well with the story line. The author included basic information about garter snakes, chameleons , and how to build a terrarium for your home.
The illustrations showing the characters expressions are quite humorous and add to the the enjoyment in reading the story.
