Appears in 30 books, from The Pie (Level 2) to Giraffes (Level 8).
Turns up at: Pamo's Grocers · Kino & Yezi's house · Boni's garden & the pond · The family kitchen · Kino's bedroom · Yezi's house · Bra Mike's workshop & scrap yard · The kitchen & veranda ….
Open question: Two Mikes — “Bra Mike” runs the garage and is Boni's partner. Two Teds — Yezi's teddy is Ted / Big Ted / Little Ted / Teddy. The Snail Race cast — Picture notes say “Kino and Zani in the garden at their home”. Little Wing is Yezi — In Little Wing Sings (L3 #2) Yezi is playing Little Wing in a dress-up game — not a separate character.
Seeded from the scripts. Expand freely — backstory, voice, what they want, anything the books imply but never say.
