How do you save the world from evil, sugar-addicted, seven-foot tall alien bunnies that invade your summer camp? Twins Kevin and Joules Rockman come up with Plan A, Plan B, Plan C and then improvise.
Twins Kevin and Joules Rockman are sent to two-weeks of summer camp rather than accompanying their parents to a SPAMathon cooking contest. The children actually are glad to avoid the wacky recipes their parents have created for the contest. Unknown to any people on Earth, three evil, sugar-addicted, seven-foot tall alien bunnies have crash landed near the camp. The riotous, tongue-in-cheek humor is sometimes almost too much. It becomes up to the twins to save the camp and ultimately Earth from this invasion.
Kevin is a list maker. His lists include “Famous last words”, and “Annoying movie characters”. As expected the twins are the first to be suspicious of what is going on at camp and in the surrounding woods and must save the rest of the campers, and Earth from this invasion.

Absolutely wacky humor sure to attract middle grade boys and girls. Recommended for grades 4-7. Theal(1), Joan
