He and his side-kick Argyle become explorers swinging on vines, forging paths through piles of clothes, and scooting past lava pits! They perform flawless surgery on a broken action figure!

Okay, that was funny. I was a slob kid so it was particularly relevant for me. I wish my mom had handled my messiness like Frankie's mom - or maybe I don't....There's a lot of fun, clever, subtle stuff going on in this deceptively simple little graphic novel/chapter book hybrid. Definitely recommend...
Join Frankie on his mission to battle his bedroom!!
