Franklin could count by twos and tie his shoes.
-
He liked going to the park with his little sister, and
-
playing all sorts of games with her.
-
But sometimes, just letting her play was a difficult thing to do.
-
Look, Fwanklin!
-
Gee, Harriet, if we stop to look at every butterfly,
-
we'll never get to the playground.
-
Remember, the minute we get there, the sooner
-
we can go on the teeter-totter with Bear and Beatrice.
-
Whee!
-
Teeter-totter!
-
It looks like you'll have to get out, Harriet.
-
We've got another hill to go down.
-
I want to go down in wagon.
-
I don't know...
-
Please, Fwanklin?
-
It is a pretty small one.
-
I guess it'll be okay.
-
Yippee!
-
Hold on tight.
-
Maybe this wasn't such a good idea, Harriet!
-
Harriet! Are you okay? Oh, no.
-
Don't worry. I'll get you home as fast as I can.
-
Is she going to be okay?
-
It's just a small scrape. She's going to be fine.
-
There. Does that feel better, honey?
-
Mm-hmm.
-
It was all my fault.
-
Don't be too hard on yourself, Franklin. These things happen.
-
But it happened when I was supposed to be looking after her.
-
It okay, Fwanklin.
-
Thanks, Harriet.
-
Can we go to park now?
-
Okay, but from now on, we're gonna have to be a lot more careful.
