Arthur: The World of Tomorrow (2006)

TV. The Arthur series from PBS is always a pleasure to watch. This disc contains four episodes: The World of Tomorrow (repeating third grade, Binky thinks the class science museum sleepover can offer nothing new), Is There a Doctor in the House? (when Arthur and D.W.'s parents get sick, they learn a lesson about self-reliance), D.W.'s Time Trouble (wishing she could be the older child, D.W. learns her lesson a la Jimmy Stewart), and Buster's Amish Mismatch (Buster briefly adopts the Amish lifestyle). This program always shows children in a loving family context but allows them the independence to make vital self-discoveries. The music is fun and the story lines are inventive. I acquired this disc through interlibrary loan since Netflix, Blockbuster, and IMDB do not list it. 4 stars.
