Toward the end of World War II, 6th-grader Frankie tries to transform his life into a script from 'Superman,' 'The Lone Ranger,' etc., where the future of the free world depends on the outcome of his adventures. Awards: ALSC Notable Children's Book; BL Editors' Choice; SLJ Best Book. World War II is just background noise for Frankie Wattleson. His life revolves around action-packed radio dramas like 'Buck Rodgers' and 'The Lone Ranger.' Suspense, heroism, thrills -- what more could an American boy want? Frankie's mom can't stand her son's hobby, though, and neither can his teacher, MissGomez. It all spells doomsday for Frankie -- unless he, disguised as radio detective Chet Barker, can cook up a plan to save the day. Tune in tomorrow to find out how this hilarious drama unfolds! |
