THE BIGGEST SLIDE IN THE WORLD
“Only Frank Haberle can create a story that is quirky and surreal yet completely believable and real. Two orphaned brothers, unwanted by all except one reluctant aunt get shuffled around by relatives before landing in a boarding school with sprinkler-obsessed headmaster. Harry Potter without wands, A Series of Unfortunate Events minus empowerment, The Biggest Slide in the World makes you laugh while wondering if you should be. Truly a must-read from a gifted new voice in literature.”
-William E Burleson, author and publisher for Flexible Press
"Frank Haberle's Biggest Slide in the World is equal parts funny and heartbreaking."
- Brett Axel, author of Not Okay
" Reflections on a type of American childhood that time and technology might erase, The Biggest Slide in the World moved me in an unexpected way. Activating much more than nostalgia, Frank Haberle helps us reckon with the realization that adulthood is part perspective, mostly clever ruse while never losing sight of the joy that young people are able to find in even the darkest of circumstances."
- Sophia Valera Heinecke, playwright and Arts and Wellness Manager at The Creative Center at University Settlement
