Frank and Red
Frank and Red: The heart-warming story of an unlikely friendship | Matt Coyne
2 posts | 2 read
Sometimes, the friend you need is the one you never saw coming. 'Simply perfect' Daily Mirror | 'Hilariously funny... and beneath it all really quite lovely' The Metro | Brilliant, just brilliant' Huffington Post Frank and Red are a mess. Frank is a grumpy old curmudgeon. A recluse whose only company is the 'ghost' of his dead wife, Marcie. He is estranged from his friends, his son, and the ever-changing world beyond his front gate. And then Red moves in next door. Red is six. A boy struggling to adjust to the separation of his mum and dad, a new school, and the demonic school bully. Red is curious, smart, he never stops talking, and he's got a trampoline. From the moment Red's blonde mop appears over the top of the fence that divides their two gardens, the unlikeliest of friendships is born. . . . And it is a friendship that will change both of their lives forever. Early readers can't get enough: 'Best book of the year!' ? ? ? ? ? 'A fantastic debut' ? ? ? ? ? 'Stunningly well-written, warm hearted, incredibly funny and moving story' ? ? ? ? ? 'A beautifully written, warm and empathic read' ? ? ? ? ?

Ordered this book on Amazon today. It sounds great and seems to be getting a lot of positive reviews. I was disappointed that it wasn't available on Kindle and I had to drop over $30 for the hardcover, but I'm excited to read it nonetheless.
