This is the story of the Norse gods and goddesses and their many adventures in the lands of men, dwarfs, and gaints.

    Bridgit is an apprentice witch and an aspiring writer. Daddy is a magician. Pat is a wizard-to-be. And then there’s Frankie, the new baby, who turns into a griffin seven hours after birth. Bridgit and Frankie are always in the thick of the family’s adventures, which range from a small-town Halloween carnival to the rescue of Pat from an unexpected trip to the moon. Stewart Daniel’s imaginative illustrations conjure up the griffins , wizards, magicians, and witches that populate a small Midwestern town and a place called Magic. A wholesome, fun-filled story of a closely-knit family that puts magic to good use, Frankie! will satisfy the adventurous urges of any middle-grade reader.
