Colour illustrations In this Franklin Classic Storybook, Franklin struggles to find a special gift for a special mom. This experience gave her plenty of published examples for her portfolio and a better understanding of how to interpret a story with pictures. Shortly afterward, Brenda found that there was plenty of work for a freelancer in educational publishing and her first jobs were for elementary school books. She studied Illustration at Sheridan College in Oakville, Ontario, and graduated with an honours diploma in 1977. "Now I realize that Hawkeye's full name is Franklin Benjamin Pierce!" Brenda Clark began drawing as a small child and realized by the age of 17 that she wanted to become a commercial artist. The name of the turtle came, Bourgeois thought, out of the blue. Thus was born Franklin in the Dark, a tale of a little green turtle who's afraid of small dark places, including his own shell. "I'm so scared that if I were a turtle, I'd be afraid of my own shell," he said. The character of Hawkeye Pierce refused to enter a cave because he was claustrophobic. That idea came one night as she was watching an episode of the television series M*A*S*H. AGES: 3-8 AUTHOR: In 1983, Toronto journalist Paulette Bourgeois decided to write a children's book. 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. After giving it some serious thought, Franklin decides to do everything for his mom. But when he discovers that his mother's birthday is coming up, he can't find the best present. He has the best friends, the best little sister, the best goldfish and, of course, the best mother. In this Franklin Classic Storybook, our hero is a very lucky turtle.
