Everyone in Woodland is very tired of the winter, and they fear that spring may never arrive. Franklin is particularly excited about the arrival of spring because that is also when his new baby brother or sister will be born. However, Franklin becomes concerned that his mom and dad might not have time for him anymore, and anxious that he will not be a good big brother. In an attempt to prove himself worthy, (and get mom and dad’s attention), he decides that he must bring spring to Woodland.
