Book Description
Frank was a monster who wanted to dance. So he put on his hat, and his shoes made in France... and opened a jar and put ants in his pants! So begins this monstrously funny, deliciously disgusting, horrifyingly hilarious story of a monster who follows his dream. Keith Graves' wacky illustrations and laugh-out-loud text will tickle the funny bone and leave readers clamoring for an encore.

10/14/2008 Brandon Bussolini said: Gorgeous, extremely detailed pastel drawings and lively verse illustrate this grotesque tale -- Frank's half-robot, half-Frankenstein and his body's full of surprises when he gets up to dance.
