Sinossi
Kim, Pippa, Toby e Kimo sono quattro fratelli che vivono su un'isola tropicale. I loro genitori non ci sono mai, ed è per questo che si sono ritrovati a vivere... dentro una piccola automobile verde! Non è sempre facile, ma fra lunghe nuotate nell'oceano e pasti a base di pesce fresco e frutta appena raccolta, la vita trascorre serena. E poi, anche se ha solo undici anni, Kim è una guidatrice provetta e con la macchina può portarli dappertutto! Ma i quattro fratelli stanno crescendo e l'auto diventa sempre più stretta. E se un nuovo bebé si aggiunge alla famiglia... beh, vuol dire che è proprio il momento di trovare una casa vera! Geniali e coraggiosi, questi fratelli vi faranno vivere una grande avventura su un'isola tutta matta! Età di lettura: da 10 anni.

Do not be taken in by the title: the four Fitzgerald-Trouts — four siblings and half-siblings named Kim, Kimo, Peppa and Toby — aren’t mischievous or dangerous.

They are fully capable of looking after themselves, but the one thing they would love is a house to call their own. This first book in a new series does a great Leggi tutto
This was such a fun story. I started to read the latest book in this series, but I couldn’t understand it because of the complicated relationships. I’m so glad that I went back to the beginning of the series, because it is a great introduction to the characters. This story reminded me of A Series of Leggi tutto
I receive this as a giveaway from Goodreads, in exchange for fair review. To start off with, I absolutely love the look and feel of this book. Complete with a blue font lettering and hued illustrations. I read this book and less than 24 hours, probably the quickest 200+ page read for me this year th Leggi tutto
This book brought back so many memories of a story I read as a child. It was part of a Reader’s Digest Condensed book and was about a family who lived in their car close to a beach. I never forgot that story. The Fitzgerald-Trout children are not your typical family set of siblings. They are all rela Leggi tutto
