I like the attention to detail: Frank's 'bunny' slippers were actually 'rat' slippers, and the cat was apparently created by the same mad scientist who created Frank. In with the humor was a message about doing what you brings you joy, whether others agree or not, even in the face of adversity. The more I think about, the more I like it. 3.5 stars. aucune critique | ajouter une critique
Frank the monster indulges his love of dancing by strutting his stuff on stage until his head unzips, his brains flop out, and he continues to lose body parts. Aucune description trouvée dans une bibliothèque |

This book came highly recommended from several sources, but I found it disappointing. Yeah, it's a little bit silly but it's also quite a bit gross (e.g., brains and eyeballs falling out and rolling about). If you're looking perhaps for a not too frightening but a still somewhat creepy book for Halloween, this could work. But personally, I was not thrilled with the slim and only mildly humorous plot.
For the record, some (including me) may object to the use of the phrase "what the heck" in the book -- while it' s not really a terrible curse or anything, I'm not sure that many parents want their 5-year-old walking around repeating it.
The illustrations are largely cartoonish and reminiscent of a more colorful Tim Burtonesque kind of grotesque. ( )
