What happens

Back to School with Franklin is a 2003 Canadian animated comedy film directed by Arna Selznick. The film, as the third Franklin film, was released direct-to-video on August 19, 2003 and was later released on DVD. The film is 46 minutes long, making it the shortest Franklin film. Cole Caplan takes over for Noah Reid as the voice of Franklin the Turtle, ushering in the sixth season of the program, which would not make its way to the United States until September 5, 2004 on Noggin. He is joined by Bryn McAuley, who has voiced his sister Harriet since the first film and Carolyn Scott as the voice of a replacement teacher Miss Koala. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
