Bikini Bonini Patricia Rose Duignan

Bikini Bonini and her three brothers return from their family's pursuit of the stinkbug migration through Central America to the previously placid Middletown. 11 year old Kat becomes Bikini's best friend and shares all their adventures in this diary you are about to read!Bikini embodies the essence of self esteem and confidence. She's building a spaceship to launch to Venus on her 16th birthday as she expects to have solved all the problems on earth by then! Although Bikini is only 11, she is BIG and TALL. Her brother PEE WEE looks like a tiny Popeye character but he's actually 16 with a driver's license and an online job writing code for a game company. RAT Bonini speaks the language of all animals and has a constant coterie of recovering creatures in his room and all over the house. Buckley, Bikini's twin brother, also 11ish, is a gentle giant, the sensitive side of the twin duo. The kids move in with their Aunt Meanie Bonini, a professed witch, but a good one...mostly. The family lives in a dilapidated old mansion that the neighborhood thought was abandoned forty years ago! Until Bikini and her brothers arrive to turn the town, and the neighborhood, upside down!
