Both the kids love the Bailey School books - great for transitioning to chapter books!

3.0

This is a fun story for early readers (2-3 grade level) that teachers some vocabulary and encourages kids to use context clues. The answer to the students' question (about whether or not Frank, the assistant, is actually Frankenstein) is never really answered, so it's up to the reader to use the clues they've been given to decide. It's not a phenomenal read, but the storyline is interesting enough to keep struggling readers involved.
