In this Franklin Classic Storybook, Franklin likes being a big brother most of the time. But when his little sister, Harriet, wants to play with his favourite stuffed animal, Franklin doesn't want to share. As they tug at the toy, something terrible happens. It rips! Franklin's mother fixes it, but he remains angry and hides the toy in his closet. Then Franklin discovers it's not the toy that makes Harriet happy - it's her big brother who brings a smile to her face. Franklin decides that maybe sharing isn't so bad after all.
