Reviews

[Rosa Cline]

Franklin and Bear both learn why its so important not to snoop around the house for gifts. Because it could turn around on you. This was a good learning story for them and for a child reader.

[Audry]

This story is about Franklin, the lovable turtle, who snoops to find out what his mother bought for his friend, Bear, for his birthday, and tells all his friends, but not Bear, but it causes trouble when Franklin later finds out that it was his own birthday present he snooped.
