Description
In this Franklin TV Storybook, Franklin can't do anything right. He can't make his sister smile, he forgets to put his bike away, he gets a scolding for talking in class --- and, on top of everything, his friends just don't seem to care. Frustrated and lonely, Franklin packs up his belongings and sets out to find new family and friends. But as he heads off, Franklin realizes the only family and friends he really wants are the ones he's leaving behind.
