“Schaefer’s necessarily brief text is crisp and cogent, integrating dialogue in an accessible manner for new readers… a sweet, sturdy addition to the growing array of very first readers.”
–Kirkus, May 15, 2006
“This title would be good for easy-reader collections and could be used in toddler storytimes.”
–School Library Journal, June 2006
“The beautiful physical immediacy of the new pet story will draw emergent readers to this small My First title in the I Can Read series… Preschoolers will enjoy the realism of the kitten’s story as they recognize from their own experience how it feels to be a small creature in a giant world.”
–Booklist, April 15, 2006

Frankie Stein comes into the world on
a bright, sunny day.
He’s not at all like his parents.
They’re scary looking.
He’s cute.
They try to make him look like them.
They can’t.
But he does end up being scary
in his own way!
