Frankie Pickle And The Pine Run 3000 (2010) - Plot & Excerpts
After flipping through this book on a trip to the library, I couldn't wait to introduce my six-year-old son to Frankie Pickle. He LOVED this book and has since read the rest of the books in the series. Frankie Pickle is adorable and his adventures are fun to follow as well as easy for kids to relate to. I highly recommend these books as either read-alongs or chapter books for the young, confident reader from 1st to 3rd grade. My 8 year-old sons first pinewood derby is coming up on Saturday so this was a particularly good time to read Frankie Pickle and the Pinerun 3000. It was a short, fast read-aloud that left him asking for "just one more chapter" and since they were short and fast chapters, and because I wanted to know how things turned out for our hero, Frankie, I obliged. We read the whole book in two evenings along with several picture books and now I have been instructed to seek out other Frankie Pickle chapter books.
What do You think about Frankie Pickle And The Pine Run 3000 (2010)?
A winning combination of early chapter book and graphic novel.
