The show revolves around the lives of 8-year-old Arthur Read, an anthropomorphic aardvark, his friends and family, and their daily interactions with each other.

Arthur is embarrassed because he now has to wear glasses.

Francine tries to get through picture day, without messing up her meticulously-crafted hairdo.

Arthur and Buster fear that their new teacher, Mr. Ratburn, is some kind of evil maniac who collects children's heads - until they discover the truth about him, of course.

Arthur does some heavy-duty studying, in order to compete in the school's upcoming spelling bee.

Whew, boy is it HOT today. The Reads decide to head to the beach in order to cool off, but D.W. refuses to go along (she thinks there is an octopus in the water).

When the class goes on a field trip to a dinosaur museum, Buster finds a fossil on the ground - and wants to keep it for himself.

D.W. has an imaginary friend, Nadine, says she has to come everywhere, but Arthur is sick of it.

When Arthur checks out a library book and loses it a week later; he thinks he is banned from the library. So he and Binky team up to find it.

When Arthur desperately wants a dog, he starts a pet business. When he gets too many he decides to just take care of one pet.

When D.W. gets told she doesn't like any interesting stuff, she decides to copy Arthur.
