Here Comes Frankie: Tim Hopgood

Can you smell music? Can you see notes and do they have a colour? Aah yes, you have synaesthesia, but don’t be alarmed because Here Comes Frankie to show you the fun.

From the front endpapers of quiet pastel hues through to the bold, bright colours of the back endpapers, we follow Frankie’s journey as a budding musician. We are introduced to silent Ellington St, where even the birds have lost their chirp and Frankie and his family lead a sedate existence until the moment Frankie brings home a trumpet. From then, the stylistic matt pages become more and more shimmeringly colourful as Frankie and his trumpet get Ellington St. rocking. Fun and colour for all the family.
