Frank’s Red Hat
by Sean E Avery (Author, Illustrator)
Summary: Frank is a penguin who likes to make hats. The penguins were a bit nervous because as soon as one of them tried on the hat, he was eaten by a killer whale. Just when Frank is about to give up on his hat-making endeavors, he discovers that seals love his creations. Frank continues to create other things, realizing that penguins may not be receptive to his creations.
Comments: A funny book to read to help students realize that they can be creative, but not always be around those who appreciate it. They need to find those who appreciate their art.
The illustrations were created using digital collage techniques and scanned fold/painted papers.
