Franklin and the Green Knight: The Movie

[first lines]

Narrator:
Franklin could count by twos and tie his shoes. He loved warm spring showers, hot summer days and crisp autumn winds. He also loved the winter because winter meant snow and playing in the snow made him very happy. One January, when the snow laid deeper and thicker than anyone in Woodland could remember, Franklin was especially happy. Something was about to happen that would change his life forever.

Franklin Turtle:
Snow, snow and more snow.

Beaver:
You know, it must be the snow hiding spring.

Rabbit:
We've gotta search far and wide.

Bear:
High and low.

Franklin Turtle:
Search for a place that doesn't have snow.

Snail:
Just as I thought. Now that Franklin's going to be a big brother, he doesn't need me anymore.

[last lines]

Franklin Turtle:
Do you remember bringing me home from the hospital?

Mrs. Turtle:
It's a day I'll never forget, my green knight.

Franklin Turtle:
Oh, I almost forgot. [placing a cherry blossom in his new sister's crib] This is for you, Harriet. By the way, I'm Franklin. I'm your big brother.

Armadillo:
Hey, who do you love more: your Mom or your Dad?

Franklin Turtle:
That's a silly question! I love them both!

Armadillo:
Exactly! And my parents have plenty of love for both me and my little brother. Nothing to worry about, right?

Franklin Turtle:
Right.

Franklin Turtle:
Guess what. We're having a party tomorrow.

Beaver:
Are we invited?

Franklin Turtle:
Well... no.

Rabbit:
If you're having a party, why aren't we invited?

Franklin Turtle:
I think it's only for grownups.

Beaver:
Your family's not having a baby shower, are they?

Franklin Turtle:
What's wrong with a baby shower?

Rabbit:
The baby's not even born yet and already your family's throwing parties for it?

Beaver:
Enjoy your parents while you still can.

Beaver:
Grownups can't help it. They go ga ga over babies. Ga ga.

Rabbit:
Ga ga.

Snail:
[staring at a snowturtle that represents Franklin's coming sibling] You're really lucky, Baby Turtle. You're gonna have big brother who'll make sure you're never late for school or parties. He'll help you with your homework and he'll play fun games with you. [sobs] But most of all, you're lucky because you'll have Franklin.
