He gets worried when he sees that the new neighbors are very large animals, and only reluctantly agrees to his Mom's request to treat new people that he meets kindly, no matter what they look like.

The character of Moose is introduced in the story "Franklin's New Friend." Moose would later appear in several more of the "Franklin" book releases. The character, however, was never again seen on the television series, having been dropped for unknown reasons.
