Part of the Franklin series
Franklin's journey to Bear's party is full of playful detours.
Franklin the turtle embarks on a journey to Bear's birthday party, but his slow pace and playful distractions with friends like Rabbit and Otter threaten his timely arrival. Will he make it in time for Bear's special day, or will his dawdling lead to missing the celebration? Join Franklin as he navigates a path filled with fun and unexpected adventures.
In this Franklin Classic Storybook, Franklin sets off to Bear’s house for a birthday party, but it’s far from a straightforward journey. Like most preschoolers, Franklin is a dawdler, slow even for a turtle. The trip becomes an opportunity to play leapfrog with Rabbit, slip and slide in the mud with Otter, and maybe even play hide-and-seek with Fox. But just in time, Franklin remembers that he mustn’t be late for Bear’s special day.
