I work in a library, putting labels on new books。 While I was labelling this book, I had to check it out; the next thing I knew, I was half way through the book and HAD to finish it! I loved this book so much!!!

More wacky tales from Deckawoo Drive and this is one of my new favorites! Kate DiCamillo speaks to kids and to the kid in all of us as well。 She looks fears and emotions squarely in the face and addresses them in ways young readers can take right into their hearts。Franklin Endicott is a worrier。 He is such a worrier that he keeps a notebook listing his worries AND he even puts organizing tabs in it! When he puts the notebook under his bed one night, the nightmares begin and soon Franklin notices More wacky tales from Deckawoo Drive and this is one of my new favorites! Kate DiCamillo speaks to kids and to the kid in all of us as well。 She looks fears and emotions squarely in the face and addresses them in ways young readers can take right into their hearts。Franklin Endicott is a worrier。 He is such a worrier that he keeps a notebook listing his worries AND he even puts organizing tabs in it! When he puts the notebook under his bed one night, the nightmares begin and soon Franklin notices that his neighbor Eugenia Lincoln was also awake in the night。 When he shares hot milk with her and confides his worries, Lincoln begins a journey that helps to manage his fears。Her trademark style and vocabulary and her respect for kids' understanding, shines as always here。 And perhaps this charming tale will assist some young worriers but it is a certainty that they will be touched and entertained。 。。。more

I like the more practical people on Deckawoo Drive the best, and Franklin is solidly in that group。 He worries about things。 I appreciate the way he indexes his worry notebook, and how he heads next door when his worries wake him in the middle of the night and he see Eugenia sitting up with insomnia。 I like how she doesn't coddle him even as she is one of the village supports。Since we don't see Mercy's irresponsible owners, I could free enjoy the pet pig, and her solution to the problem of the t I like the more practical people on Deckawoo Drive the best, and Franklin is solidly in that group。 He worries about things。 I appreciate the way he indexes his worry notebook, and how he heads next door when his worries wake him in the middle of the night and he see Eugenia sitting up with insomnia。 I like how she doesn't coddle him even as she is one of the village supports。Since we don't see Mercy's irresponsible owners, I could free enjoy the pet pig, and her solution to the problem of the third key。 This is a great addition to the series, with short encouraging chapters and a complex child to appreciate。 It's not as likely to produce guffaws as some of the other books though。I received a copy of this book from the publisher。 。。。more

I can't prove this, but I'd like to think I could spot something written by Kate DiCamillo were I handed a manuscript blind。 She takes such care with her characters and often speaks to the heart of childhood wants and worries。 I've been out of the elementary scene for quite a while and so, lost track of Mercy Watson and her spin-offs。 Franklin Endicott is volume six of the Tales from Deckwoo Drive series and I promised myself to read volumes one through five。 Franklin Endicott is so endearing an I can't prove this, but I'd like to think I could spot something written by Kate DiCamillo were I handed a manuscript blind。 She takes such care with her characters and often speaks to the heart of childhood wants and worries。 I've been out of the elementary scene for quite a while and so, lost track of Mercy Watson and her spin-offs。 Franklin Endicott is volume six of the Tales from Deckwoo Drive series and I promised myself to read volumes one through five。 Franklin Endicott is so endearing and I just loved his friendship with grumpy Eugenia Lincoln。 。。。more
