The Neighborhood
The kids in Allisen’s neighborhood, despite the twelve-year age range, get along very well with each other and always find ways to have fun together. Sometimes they break off into clusters defined by age, but more often than not, it’s everyone playing together in a big group. The neighborhood Olympics are a way that they all keep themselves occupied over the summer, and it’s pretty impressive the way they actually manage to get everyone together to compete in every event.
Brian and Molli are… interesting. Would you consider them friends with each other? They’re constantly arguing, pranking each other, daring each other, insulting each other, and trying to out-do one another, but we find out at the end of Book #25: “Teases, Tricks, and…Danger?” that it’s kind of a mutual agreed-upon thing. No matter how much they rant and rage and complain about one another, Molli and Brian do enjoy each other’s company. I think each would find life without the other very boring indeed.
Shelly says in Book #36, “The Summer Games”, that Molli and Brian’s constant arguing is “just their way of trying not to let us see how much they secretly like each other.” What do you think?
