In this Franklin Classic Storybook, our hero is a very lucky turtle. He has the best friends, the best little sister, the best goldfish and, of course, the best mother. But when he discovers that his mother's birthday is coming up, he can't find the best present. After giving it some serious thought, Franklin decides to do everything for his mom. On the morning of her birthday he takes her breakfast in bed, makes a brooch, draws a picture and cuts fresh flowers from the garden! And then Franklin gives his mom a great big hug and says, ?I love you? --- which is, of course, the best gift of all.

Nice story! Very sweet story. Read it to Bobby and he seemed to enjoy it. Will read more Franklin books in the future.
As always, this Franklin book delivers a beautiful message and a tender moral. I love the way Franklin's parents use such great wisdom to guide little Franklin. We can all learn from these books!
Cute story with a great lesson. Franklin wants to buy something for his moms birthday but everything is too expensive or not right. And his mom couldn't careless, she is most touched but Franklin telling her he loves her.
This is a great book and fun to read for whole family! Me and my family really enjoy reading it!
I'm not sure why this book gets so much popularity? It's dull and monotonous. I didn't like it and my 2.5yo was even more bored than me!
A lovely warm book. My grand kids loved the story and there is a great lesson in the story about the importance of expressing love.
Great book.
My boys love all the Franklin books and I'm a big fan too. I am also usually a bit cautious about gender stereotypes in children's literature. The father in this particular books comes across as a little lame (perhaps intentionally for the parents'/reader's comic enjoyment). When Franklin mentions to his father that his mother's birthday is tomorrow, the father is surprised, and then runs out to get a gift (he didn't remember his wife's birthday?). When the family gathers to give their gifts to the mother, the father has given her a tool box (really?!).It's all extremely subtle. My boys certainly didn't pick up on this and I doubt any other young children would, but as a mother it did strike me as odd (if not sadly realistic). The Franklin books always model the ideal family life/childhood. I wish they would subliminally message to my boys what a model husband looks like too, but I'm sure that's asking way too much out of children's literature.
