    Description of Frankie and Friends The Missing Sock

    Aspiring journalist Frankie and her lively team of toys are doing a new type of story—an investigative report on the laundry’s missing sock!

    Frankie’s mama is just about the best journalist in the world, and Frankie can’t wait to be a reporter like her one day. When a top secret package arrives at the news station, Mama explains it’s info for a special kind of story—an investigative report. She tells Frankie it’s like being a detective, looking for clues to find out:

    • Important facts
    • Hidden secrets
    • The truth behind the mystery

    The Frankie and Friends Newsroom decides to do their own investigative report on the mystery of the missing polka-dot sock! The news team includes:

    • Dan the teddy bear
    • Bossy King Tut and Queen Cleopatra
    • Nina Simone the cat

    Why did two socks go into the laundry while only one came out? Following Frankie’s methods and prepared with new journalistic vocabulary words, young reporters can dig into their own fact-finding reports after the latest adventure in this engaging series.
