Book #2 in the Frankie and Friends series
A young reporter sets out to learn what a protest is and why people join one.
When a protest for justice makes the news, Frankie's journalist mama goes to cover it, and Frankie wants to report too. With her news crew of toys, she researches what a protest is, interviews her family, and helps the toys plan a protest of their own.
Young reporter Frankie and her news crew of beloved toys learn why and how people protest as this engaging series continues. There's breaking news on TV at Frankie's house--a protest to demand justice! Frankie's mama, a journalist, gets a call to cover the story, and Frankie wants to do her own reporting, too. But what is a protest, exactly, and why do people do it? Along with her news crew, including Farrah the doll, Dan the teddy bear, and Nina the cat, Frankie prepares a feature story by doing research and conducting interviews with Papa and big sister Raven. And when the toys decide to have their own protest in support of the local movement, Frankie is on the scene to help make signs, march, and, of course, get the scoop! In this latest installment of the winning series, Frankie explores big ideas like racial injustice and activism with her supportive family and learns more about journalism in the process. Young newshounds will learn along with Frankie through all-caps vocabulary terms and a glossary at the back.
