Description

In this Franklin TV Storybook, Franklin and Bear are thrilled to be heading out on a canoe trip with their fathers. They're going to be just like real explorers! But the trek is harder than Franklin expects, and after hours of canoeing and portaging in the hot sun, he begins to wish they'd taken a motorboat instead. When they finally reach the campsite, it's not at all what they expected. Will Franklin and Bear ever find the perfect place to go exploring?
