Frankly, Frannie

review 1: Frannie Miller is a mischievous girl who loves grown up things. When her class goes on a field trip to a local radio station she makes sure she has her briefcase and business cards with her. When she notices the host of the call in show has left his post she steps in to help. Frannie learns an important lesson about following the rules and helping others. In the style of Junie B. Jones and Judy Moody this series is great for grades 2-3. early chapter books, realistic fiction, jobs
review 2: I had high hopes for this book, unfortunately it just didn't have the same ring of truth to it that some of the others in this genre of young 1st - 3rd grade girl main characters plights, trials and tribulations. she was much too quick to admit her faults and apologize for ... morethem. I suspect more seething and temper tantrums would have ensued than did. And then her parents forgave her (as well as her classmates) too quickly after she ruined a second class trip. She apologized to everyone involved and suddenly all was right with the world. Just a bit far fetched. Her antics should have held higher consequences (simply in the form of her friends being angry with her would have been fine), there just did not seem to be any... That said, I think the author did an interesting job of using different fonts portraying some of Frannie's different quirks; her desire to be seen as grown up, using grown up words for example. So it get's a two and half stars from me. It was OK, but Ramona or even Junie B (fresh as she is) as well as their surrounding cast of characters seemed like more real characters to me than Frannie... less
