Franklin Classic Storybooks: Franklin Plays the Game
FRANKLIN could slide down a riverbank He could tie his shoes and count by twos He could walk to Bear's house all by himself But Franklin couldn't kick a soccer ball straight That was a problem because Franklin wanted to be the best player on his team
Franklin loved soccer He liked the running and the dribbling He especially liked the uniforms He wore his purple and yellow jersey and matching shin pads even when he wasn't playing soccer Sometimes he slept with his soccer ball and dreamed of scoring goals
