3.  If I Could Build a Town Betsy Franco If I could build a town, well then, I know just what I'd make: an ice cream store, a toy shop, and a store with bread and cake. I guess I'd make a park and build a nifty fire station. Say, would you like to help me? It just takes imagination! Main Street Betsy Franco The bookstore, the sports store, the grocery, The post office, bank, and the library, The firehouse, the clinic, the town police. The pet store, the shoe store, the bakery. I gave you a tour all along our main street. Now don't you agree that our city is neat?
