abigailbat's review against another edition

This hybrid graphic novel/chapter book is going to be just right to booktalk to 3rd graders who enjoy adventure books. Frankie Pickle is a boy with a lot of imagination and he's about to face his biggest challenge yet: cleaning his room! Lots of kids will identify with Frankie's struggle (he doesn't see the POINT in cleaning his room!) and laugh at his attempts to get out of cleaning.
The graphic novel sections add appeal and do not seem forced. Frankie is a kid who loves comic books and adventure stories, so the comic sections fit right in with his story.

Graphic novel tale of an imaginitive boy that doesn't want to clean his room. Sure to be a hit with lower-mid elementary school boys.

I agreed with the book review of a good blend of graphic novel/early chapter book for a 2nd-3rd grade reader. Maybe this book convinced Jacob to do a better job cleaning his room and toys?

I randomly met Eric on the floor at Book Expo. He was unassuming and low key, but he "sold" me on this book anyway. Wonderful, fun illustrations; half text/half comics -- great for the younger set of Diary of a Wimpy Kid fans.
Quinton loved it! A great book for those 1st-4th grade boys who are looking for short chapter books with illustrations.

Love this series for transitional readers. Lots to think about but a fun character and plot. Definitely putting this in 4th grade classroom.

Frankie Pickle is probably one of my favorite graphic novel characters to date. He's just the right amount of silly, adventurous, practical and imaginative. This is a series that I'll be looking forward to installing in my classroom library.
