Book
Frankie & Bug / by Gayle Forman.
In the summer of 1987 in Venice, California, ten-year-old Bug and her new friend Frankie learn important lessons about life, family, being your true self, and how to navigate in a world that is not always just or fair.
"It's summer, and all ten-year-old Bug wants to do is go to the beach with her older brother and hang out with the locals-just like they have for the last two years. But now Danny wants his space, and Bug is stuck hanging out with their neighbor Phillip's nephew Frankie, who has come for a visit. After a bumpy start, Frankie and Bug join forces to find the Midnight Marauder-a criminal on the loose in the L.A. area. It makes for a fun summer until but violence strikes close to home after Uncle Phillip is attacked. As Frankie and Bug turn their attention to solving this mystery, what they learn about themselves is far more important-family can be whatever you make it, love is stronger than blood, and it's up to all of us to hurry toward justice."-- Author's webpage.
