Frank & Bean is a book series I created with author Jamie Michalak. Jamie and I have had a great time with these books and really love these two wacky guys. Frank is a self-conscious, finicky hot dog who writes poems. Bean is a loud, fun-loving, somewhat clueless bean. He is also a musician (yes, the musical fruit). They turn out to be a wonderful combo. Three books, a stage production musical, and just maybe something more in the future.
