Ivy and Bean meets Aliens in my Pocket in this start to a brand-new chapter book series about Frankie Sparks, a third grader who uses her love for science and math to help her solve problems she comes across in her daily life.
The best thing EVER is happening in Frankie Sparks’s third grade class: They are getting a class pet! Their teacher, Miss Cupid, tells them they will vote on their pet, but it has to meet some “parameters.” Their pet must:
1. Fit in aquarium.
2. Cost less than $50.
3. Be easily portable.
4. Be able to be left alone for the weekend.
Frankie thinks that a rat—just like the rats in her beloved Aunt Gina’s lab—would be the perfect fit. But her best friend, Maya, doesn’t think a rat would be great at all. They are kind of gross and not as cool as a hermit crab, which is Maya’s top choice. Using her special workshop, can Frankie find a way to convince her teacher and her best friend that Team Rat is the way to go?

Frankie Sparks and the Class Pet
CHAPTER 1 The Big Announcement
FRANKIE SPARKS HAD A STORY to share. It was the best story ever. It gurgled in her stomach as she rode the bus to school. It fizzed in her fingers and toes when she and Suki Moskovitz and Maya played Don’t Touch the Hot Lava on the playground before school. It threatened to pop out of her mouth like a burp while they put their things away in their cubbies and did their morning work. But she managed to hold on to it all the way until morning meeting. By then she could barely contain herself.
Frankie was in third grade at Grace Hopper Elementary, which was the luckiest place to go to school. Plus she had the best teacher, Ms. Cupid. And her best friend in the whole world, Maya, was in her class, and Ms. Cupid even let them be partners 50 percent of the time.
Every Monday at morning meeting Ms. Cupid asked her class to share what they had done over the weekend. So, as soon as Frankie and her twenty classmates crowded down on the rug, Frankie raised her hand as high as she could. She stretched up on her knees and wiggled her fingers. But she didn’t say anything. Not one word. Her teacher, Ms. Cupid, did not like it when kids blurted.
