It should be noted that the breaking of Samuel (Shmuel), Kings (Melachim), and Chronicles (Divrei hayamim) into two parts is strictly an artifact of the Christian printers who first issued the books. They were too big to be issued as single volumes. Because every one followed these de facto standards, the titles of Volume 1 and Volume 2 were attached to the names. The division of the Tanakh into chapters was also done by medieval Christians, and only later adopted by Jews.
Many Christian Bibles have expanded versions of several of these books (Ester, Ezra, Daniel, Jeremiah, and Chronicles) including extra material that is not accepted as canonical in Judaism. This extra material was part of the ancient Greek translation of the Tanakh, but was never a part of the official Hebrew Tanakh. Jews regard this extra material as apocryphal.
Among Christians, there is a difference of opinion. Catholics regard this material as canonical, while most Protestant denominations regard this material as Apocrypha. Some of the most famous Apocryphal stories are closely associated with the book of Daniel, and indeed are printed as part of that book in some English Bibles. These stories include: Susan and the Elders, The Song of the Three Children, and Bel and the Dragon.
