Franklin's Nickname
Synopsis
When Franklin realizes that his favorite athletes all have cool nicknames, he decides that he wants one, too. So he asks everyone to call him "Flash. " His friends point out that nicknames are never self-chosen; you get one based on something you do. They decide that Franklin should be called "Pokey," since he moves slowly. This sets off a contest in which Franklin tries to disprove his friends -- but his true nature wins out. Franklin decides to wait for a nickname until he's earned one that really suits him.
