Description

Franklin finds a stopwatch in the junk drawer and proceeds to drive family and friends crazy by timing everything they do. When Franklin gets a taste of his own medicine, will he realize that sometimes a stopwatch needs to stop watching?

This Level 2 first reader contains longer stories, varied sentences, increased vocabulary, more difficult visual clues and some repetition.
