Frankie and his mom are heading to the library. When they get there, Frank only wants books about tractors. The librarian, Miss Squid, is happy to have Frankie getting more tractor books, but his mom is tired of reading the same things over and over. Frankie’s mom tries to convince him to get books about trucks, trains, steam rollers, anything but tractors. Frank isn’t having it.
