Bonkers: the new megaseries from New York Times bestselling author Patrick Carman
There’s something in Jenny’s armpit, and it’s getting bigger.
Ten-year-old Jenny Kim and her two buddies, Fen Stenson and Barker Mifflin, live in the town of Nevermind, where strange happenings are so normal that finding a mysterious thing growing in your armpit isn’t even considered a big deal. But when the mysterious thing gets so big Jenny has to haul it around in a wheelbarrow, it’s cause for concern. She’s going to need some help sorting this out!
Enter Fen Stenson and Barker Mifflin—dancing Swedish exchange student and doomsday prepper extraordinaire—and you’ve got a team of friends made for the moment.
Go with Jenny, Fen, and Barker as they visit an abandoned chemistry lab, discover curious creatures called Snerbs, and uncover a secret so big it might just eat the entire planet. It could happen!
Patrick Carman usually spends his time in Walla Walla, Washington. But in the spring of 2005 he’s taking his wife and two daughters on the road, traveling across the country on a whirlwind tour in support of his dazzling first novel, The Dark Hills Divide.
Natalie Lloyd lives in Chattanooga, Tennessee. She collects old books, listens to bluegrass music, and loves exploring quirky mountain towns with her dog, Biscuit. She is the author of A Snicker of Magic and The Key to Extraordinary.
Cassandra Morris lives in Los Angeles and has received critical acclaim for her voice-over work from Publishers Weekly and AudioFile magazine, and was the narrator on the 2015 Odyssey Honor title and Audie Award finalist A Snicker of Magic. To date, she has narrated over a hundred audiobooks.
Reviews
“STOP! Kids exposed to Patrick Carman’s The Terror in Jenny’s Armpit, the first in his Bonkers series, may experience bouts of uncontrolled cackling. Readers averse to slimy blobs, giant traveling eyeballs, armpit humor, and characters under impossible pressure to save the world are hereby advised: please do not read this book. Stay far away. OK? Now leave me alone. I’m going to go read it again!”
“This book is gross, hilarious, chaotic, funny, and scary—sometimes all in the same paragraph! Anyone who spends time with kids knows how thrilled they’ll be to have it. Kids are going to pass this book to one another in the halls, they’re going to stay in from recess to finish it—it grabs you and flings you on a wild, gross, terrifically fun ride. Maybe it’s the madcap plot, maybe it’s the deadpan humor, or maybe it’s the tale of friendship at its core, but this book grabbed me and didn’t let go. I can’t wait for the next installment!”
“Patrick Carman is a lovely and kind man with a wacko sense of imagination. I couldn’t have imagined this tale if I had fifty lifetimes to think about it. It’s wild, funny, outlandish, and outrageous. Boy, does it move!!! Take the wild ride. It’s a blast!”
“This book is the pits! And I mean that in the best way. So much laugh-out-loud fun and adventures from one armpit! I love this series—you’ll go Bonkers, too!”
“The first book in the new adventure series called Bonkers is definitely, well, bonkers. It’s a fun and funny sci-fi story that will have you laughing and biting your nails at the same time, which may make it hard to turn the pages. Patrick Carman has done it again!”
“This suspenseful and hilarious Bonkers adventure has it all: embarrassing underarm problems, a mysterious abandoned lab where all the wacky and gross trouble starts, and three wisecracking friends trying to figure it all out. Patrick Carman knows exactly what tickles the funny bones for kids!”
“You better read Bonkers right now! Or you will have no one but yourself to blame when a Snerb starts growing out of your armpit … and you don’t know what to do. Required reading for anyone who loves fast, funny, weird, bonkers adventures!”
“You better read Bonkers right now! Or you will have no one but yourself to blame when a Snerb starts growing out of your armpit…Required reading for anyone who loves fast, furious, weird, bonkers adventures.”
“Bonkers totally delivers on its name! This book is a fun, funny, and gripping read and, like all Patrick Carman books, full of memorable characters that suck you into a wonderfully weird, layered world—armpit drama! Cuddly yet menacing creatures! Abandoned laboratories! It all adds up to a fabulously good time.”
