Frankie Forward

Crabs are known for scuttling sideways. But not Frankie. He walks forward! Everyday life becomes an adventure in problem-solving when you aren’t like everyone else. With the unwavering support of his best friend Flo the clownfish, Frankie learns to navigate schools, coral reefs, and his seaside community in his own unique way. Each story drops Frankie into a new challenge—from crab-ball matches to coral-reef skateparks to undersea marathons—where his differences seem like obstacles at first. But with creativity, courage, and a dash of humor, Frankie always finds a way to join in while staying true to himself. Full-color, comic-book style art brings life to Frankie’s aquatic adventures.
