"D.W.'s Imaginary Friend": Written by Ken Scarborough. Arthur's annoying younger sister, D.W., has a new abnormality, and Arthur is embarrassed to be seen with her in public. Instead of accepting her condition, he goes out of his way to convince her to stay home rather than tag along with him to the amusement park.
This episode teaches children to accept others for their differences without being obvious or preachy. I really like how it shows D.W.'s "disorder" as just a part of her personality instead of something to be diagnosed and treated at a facility. Realistic, engaging, and relatable telling of Arthur's side of the story as well. Very clean-cut. Television at its best :)
