He lies in wait, eager to prey on those who don't stay by their parents' side.

Soon, he's whisked off to a place far, far away from his family and the playground. Follow young Fran's adventure as he navigates a fine line between the safe confines of life with Mum, Dad, and grandparents, and ends up somewhere he could have never imagined was true in this fun, informative children's picture book!
