A picture book biography about Frank Sinatra. Bare bones information, but a charming read.

What a fun story about Frank Sinatra. I abridged it a bit for length while reading to my 5- and 2-year-old, but they both liked it. There was a bonus moment when we discussed "making fun" of people after Frankie gets ribbed for his fancy clothes. While there's no mention of how he actually handles the situation, it's clear he either ignores the rude comments or finds a way to make peace with them, since he's outfitted in fancy clothes throughout the book.
Immediately after reading we had to find YouTube videos of Frankie and Bing singing together. It made me happy to see this story bringing some of the musicality of the past into the present.
