The Frank Show — David Mackintosh

This hilarious, offbeat picture book from the creator of Marshall Armstrong Is New to Our School reveals that there is more to the older generation than meets the eye. Grandpa Frank doesn't have any interesting hobbies, unless you count complaining about how everything was better in the old days. He doesn't speak Italian like Paolo's mom, or play the drums like Tom's uncle. He's just a grandpa. So when the young narrator of this story is forced to bring Frank to school for show-and-tell, he's sure it's going to be a disaster. But Frank has a trick -- make that a tattoo -- up his sleeve! And a story to go with it. After all, the longer you've been around, the more time you've had for wild adventures.
