About Frazz

Every kid’s pal and peer, Frazz exudes a love of learning that's contagious.

Frazz by Jef Mallett follows the adventures of an unexpected role model: an elementary-school janitor who's also a Renaissance man. While he's sweeping the hall, he's whistling Beethoven. Or Lyle Lovett. He paints the woodwork in the classrooms; he paints a Da Vinci on the cafeteria wall. He's a trusted authority figure who is every kid's buddy. He took the janitor's job while he was a struggling songwriter, and when he finally sold a hit song, he decided to stay on at school.

Often praised for its intelligent wit, gentle spirit and effortless diversity, Frazz won a 2003 Wilbur Award from the Religion Communicators Council for excellence in communicating values and ethics.
