This gem of a novel takes place in Pittsburgh in 1952. Franny Katzenback, while recovering from polio, reads and falls in love with the brandnew book Charlottes Web. Bored and lonely and yearning for a Charlotte of her own, Franny starts up a correspondence with an eloquent flea named Fleabrain who lives on her dogs tail. While Franny struggles with physical therapy and feeling left out of her formerly active neighborhood life, Fleabrain is there to take her on adventures based on his extensive reading. Its a touching, funny story set in the recent past, told with Rocklins signature wit and thoughtfulness.AwardsBank Street Children's Books 'Best Books of the Year,' Fiction Ages 912Sydney Taylor Notable Book for Older ReadersPraise for Fleabrain Loves Franny'Heartwarming and endlessly funny, Fleabrain Loves Franny will delight readers of all ages.
