Franklin becomes so captivated with a new computer game
that he almost forgets what being a friend is all about.


Franklin is totally into Beaver's new computer game, Dam Builders. He keeps popping up at her house and spends all his time playing Dam Builders. He's so obsessed with reaching the next level in the game that he turns down Beaver's invitation to go swimming and even forgets his promise to Bear to show up for soccer practice--twice. One day Franklin finds himself alone; all his friends are at the pond. They are glad when Franklin joins them for a real game of dam builders, and Franklin realizes that friends are the most fun of all.
