Tonya

Tonya is a supporting character appearing in "Ginger and the Girl".

Appearance
Tonya is a little girl about the same age as Ginger. She has red hair with pigtails and wears a pink shirt and purple-striped pants.

Personality
Tonya can be very rude at times, fighting with Ginger. She fears boys the same way Ginger fears girls, afraid of getting cooties.

History
She was picked by the teacher to be Ginger's science fair partner. They fought at the park because she squeezed glue like a girl. Their hands touched and Ginger ran home.

Later, Ginger ran into the gymnasium because Darren stole their idea. Tonya and Ginger fought and Ginger loses his temper and screamed that girls are gross. So, Tonya chased him up a rope but the link securing it to the ceiling snaps. Tonya offers Ginger a big wad of gum to patch the link, and Ginger realises that it was the only way to do that.

Later, they invented a "lie detector gum" to expose Darren. Darren chews the gum and denies stealing their idea, but he immediately becomes unable to open his mouth. Ronnie admits that he stole the idea. Ginger and Tonya then reveals that the gum was just a sticky prank gum, and reveals their solar-powered toaster. They won the trip to Bug Camp.
