Huberman’s narrator Frankie is lots of fun to spend time with, she’s smart and kind and full of hilarious observations about the weird obsessions of grown-ups. The illustrations by Katie Kear really bring Frankie’s worlds, both real and imaginary, vividly to life. Thoughtopolis, the imaginary world in Frankie’s brain, is initially a delightful escape from her real world worries, full of wonderful creatures and lots of groan-inducing puns but eventually the real world encroaches upon Frankie’s fantasy sanctuary and she must confront what is going on in her life. Her debut children’s book will follow a young girl called Frankie, who is an avid daydreamer. As the description reads; “Everyone thinks that Frankie is a daydreamer, but she is hiding a secret. When her parents think she’s ‘in another world’ little do they know, she really is. Together with her little brother Fred, Frankie can disappear to Thoughtopolis, a magical world inside her head.

Even Frankie thinks she is a little bit trapped, returning there as often as she can to enjoy madcap adventures accompanied by her brother Fred and dog Blue.
