Horn Book (Sun Aug 01 00:00:00 CDT 2004)

Based on episodes from the animated TV series, these two stories feature Franklin the turtle's efforts to solve a problem. In Scooter, he tries to earn money to buy a new scooter; in Contest, he competes in a contest. These adaptations, illustrated with cartoon art, are obvious TV spin-offs.

Franklin wants a shiny, red scooter just like his friend Rabbit's, but Franklin doesn't have enough money to buy one. To raise funds, Franklin sets up a lemonade stand and a yard sale --- but still falls short. Then he discovers that Rabbit wants a bicycle. Since Franklin already owns a bicycle, the two friends arrive at the perfect solution: sharing. This Level 2 first reader contains longer stories, varied sentences, increased vocabulary, more difficult visual clues and some repetition.
