Franklin is scared of small, dark places. Most of all, he's scared of crawling inside his small, dark shell to go to sleep - a bit of a problem when you're a turtle! He sets out to seek a solution and finds that the other creatures he meets also have fears and have had to find ways to cope. The answer he comes up with is just right and had many children smiling.
