Big adventures. Little paws. Lessons that last a lifetime.
Welcome to the home of Franklin’s Red Dot Adventures™, a Texas-born children's picture book series created by author Richard Hildreth.
Meet Franklin, a curious gray tabby kitten with a big imagination, a brave heart, and a dream of becoming a Texas Ranger.
Set at Los Gatitos Ranch, Franklin and his friends discover that growing up is an adventure all its own. Along the way, they face challenges that children everywhere encounter—bullies, fear, friendship, differences, responsibility, honesty, courage, and standing up for what is right.
And sometimes, of course, sometimes there is a mysterious red dot to chase.
Meet Franklin
Franklin isn't your ordinary kitten. He's curious. He's determined. He's sometimes a little too adventurous, but he's always ready to learn.
Along with his sister Ellie, their human Erin, and the colorful animals of Los Gatitos Ranch, Franklin finds himself in situations that test his character as much as his courage. Every adventure brings a lesson. But Franklin doesn't always learn it the easy way.
However, isn't that part of growing up.
