Meet Franklin Bean 

Picture
Children's 4-12

Get ready for a world of adventure with the beloved Boston Terrier who’s magical powers come to life in the first of his superhero series, Meet Franklin Bean.

This new children’s book tells the story of how ten-year-old John transforms his worries over his mom’s lost job, their move to a new town, and making friends with the bullies at school with the influence and inspiration from his new adopted friend, Franklin Bean.

Talking only to children and concealing his secret identity, the young pup fulfills his mission to turn human tears into smiles by performing superhuman feats.

What else is magical, according to first-time author Emmy Swain, is the level of engagement the book is enjoying.

Emmy Swain believes in the magical power of animals to heal and guide the human spirit. Meet Franklin Bean was born out of her conversations with her own beloved pets to help end the devastating effects of bullying.
