Franny's Feet

Arctic Antics/Octopus's Garden

Season 1, Episode 8 of 13

A) Franny heads to the Arctic, where she meets Joey and his sled dogs Keelut and Nuktuk. Joey wants to enter a sled dog race, but his dogs don't know how to work together. After a few failed attempts at teaching Keelut and Nuktuk about teamwork, Franny and Joey succeed - just in time for the big race. In Franny's Treasures, Franny and Bobby help the audience identify different kinds of dogs and the work they do. B) Franny travels under the sea, where she runs into Gus, a clown fish who is frustrated that he doesn't have time to tend his messy garden. She also meets Clarence, a self-conscious octopus who feels clumsy because of his tentacles. With Franny's guidance, Clarence discovers that his eight arms make him special - he swiftly cleans up Gus's garden and is a big help to his friends. In Franny's Treasures, Franny and Bobby help the audience learn how sea creatures like fish, crabs, and octopi move under water.
