(4) 4-6 Welcome to Wonderland series. Illustrated by Brooke Allen. Middle schooler P.T. Wilkie lives with his mother and eccentric, ne'er-do-well grandfather in the family's Florida motel. In these first books, P.T. and new friend Gloria save Wonderland from foreclosure (Home), then pitch Wonderland as a film set to Hollywood bigwigs (Beach). Over-the-top goofiness, crazy schemes, and improbable action abound against a backdrop of the 1970s-kitschy motel. Comics-style art plays up the silliness. Review covers these Welcome to Wonderland titles: Home Sweet Motel and Beach Party Surf Monkey.
