Goldie,
By A Customer
This review is from: Franklin Wants A Pet (Paperback)
Franklin tries to figure out what pet he wants. His friends give him suggestions, but he ends up with a golldfish. We now have a goldfish because my son wanted a pet just like Franklin.

Cute book with a good theme!,
By A Customer
This review is from: Franklin Wants a Pet (Franklin) (Hardcover)
At some time, all children want their first pet. Reading this book helps show children that pets are work and that having one is not just fun. As always, good illustrations and a nice theme that is consistent with Franklin books.

This review is from: Franklin Wants A Pet (Paperback)
This is a wonderful book to read to children with a good well thought out story and neat illustrations. I will certainly be looking for more of the same.
