There's more to Frank than meets the eye...

A quirky, witty and utterly brilliant picture book from the award-winning creator of Marshall Armstrong is New to our School.

Frank is your typical grandad, but no one has a grandad like him...

If you had to stand up and talk, for one whole minute, about a member of your family, who would you pick? Everyone else chooses really cool people, like Tom's Uncle Marlon who plays drums in a band, or Hannah's mum with her company car. But there's nothing cool about grandad Frank... or is there?

In this hilarious, wise and heart-warming story, awesome new picture book talent David Mackintosh shows with a supreme lightness of touch just how much the older generation has to teach us, and how much fun learning from them can be. Perfect for young boys and girls from 3+.
