Franny's Friends

Product Information

Basically, if you have a young kid below the age of six get them this to read alone or with you, a definite recommendation.

CW: death of parent (past), financial concerns due to loss of employment, DNA testing, complicated/strained parental relationships, hospitalization of family member (heart related) Beyond the whole social media angle, the only other thing I liked about this was how the connections between these two played out and thus how their slow-burn relationship built. I didn't feel the connection (nor did I like the writing so that was a double fail) but I appreciate what the author tried to do. The first time I read the book, my head was spinning as the librarian and teacher in me thought of ways to use the book as a teaching tool for the very young and even older students. The second time I read the book, I viewed it through a young reader’s lens and was thoroughly entertained by the somewhat mischievous main character, Franny, and the rich, engaging illustrations (LOVE Franny’s dad’s mustache). And then I read the book again because it’s that kind of book: a re-reader. (Yes, I made-up that word, but it works.)An epically disastrous meet cute with a wardrobe malfunction and a viral hashtag. #SubwayQTs for the win! Also, Spencer is playing Representation Bingo with her otherwise undeveloped, plotless side-characters, and I think she won. When someone is breeding puppies or breeding kittens, they are creating new dogs and cats who need homes. Some people are interested in a very specific breed of dog, cat, puppy or kitten and they think the only way to find that specific breed is to buy a dog for sale or buy a cat for sale from a puppy breeder or a kitten breeder. Yet animal shelters are filled with dogs and cats who must find homes. Born in Hong Kong and raised in the UK before moving to the States for college, Henry oozed worldly sophistication without an ounce of douchebaggery. He was a real unicorn.’

Gere is wonderful, it's a showcase for him, doing his usual blinky performance. His desperation as Franny is pretty grim, especially one scene were his need for a fix is horrifically apparent.I’m not sure I agree with the message here. True, children do tend to take unnecessary risks and danger themselves.

There are so many cute and fluffy moments in this book that'll have you ON THE FLOOR. Their banter was to die for! But my favorite moment of their entire relationship was their first super romantic date night in NYC. I won't say more because I have to leave all the good magical stuff for y'all to experience! Honestly, the only thing I didn't care for all that much was their reason for the third-act break-up. It felt a little silly but in the end, I still enjoyed the book. In A New York Minute delivers on a slow-burn romance (AND I'M TALKING SLOW LIKE THE ZOOTOPIA SLOTH) and I absolutely loved that! We see Franny and Hayes overcome the misunderstanding between them and then work towards becoming friends. The progression of their relationship made a lot of sense to me but I could also be biased because I'm trash for a good slow-burn romance. At one point, we actually get to see Hayes date someone else and surprisingly, it didn't bother me. Ultimately, that short-lived relationship of his only served to bring him closer to Franny. Do you know any of the songs at least?” I asked, truly horrified. “Something something summer romance, something something at the high school dance?” he guessed, shimmying slightly in his seat, dancing along to a totally botched attempt at “Summer Nights.”Franny's Feet first aired on Family Channel in Canada on July 8, 2003 and concluded on October 31, 2010. [2] [3] It also aired on PBS Kids in the United States and on Five in the United Kingdom. The series aired for three seasons and 52 episodes. Now that's what we call a romantic comedy, folks! I know I'm not alone in lamenting the use of "rom-com" to describe any and every book that is simply contemporary romance. So, it's a pleasure to read a book that actually reminds you of classic rom-com movies. Kate Spencer's debut is a charmer and I have no doubt it's going to be a hit with romance readers. As a rom-com, the love theme is definitely there but the slow burn romance between Franny and Hayes was too much on the light side for me, the focus was clearly given to both love interests singularities and introspection than their burning want for each other. I loved both characters but their contemplative prospect about one another was damn near infuriating. I'm so thankful for their respective pushy friends.

Franny Doyle has just been let go from her designer job in New York City due to downsizing. On her way home from work, during one of the most embarrassing moments of her life, she meets a man who helps her on the subway. The film was written a vehicle for Richard Gere in the role of Franny. But all of the character developments are sketchy, as the scenario is built around Gere's emotional outbursts. The thankless role of Poodles is played by Dakota Fanning, who never fully realizes that Franny was responsible for the auto accident that killed her parents when he was smoking marijuana and horsing around in the car. He would be Francis Watt! (Ok, and we wouldn't have one of the finest TV-Shows of recent television)I should have known that when you’re working for a company that promises to “disrupt” things, they might just mean your life.” Produced by Decode Entertainment, Franny's Feet is children-aimed and centers on how upbeat is the initial exploration. This book was everything I think a book for kids should be. The framework was nice and simple, a story about a little firefly, getting into a lot of dangerous situations, learning her lessons about being careful and playing with her firefly friends.
