Bookroo's summary

Arthur's relentless hiccups resist every remedy his friends suggest, from headstands to laughter. As hope fades, his sister D.W. claims she knows the secret cure. Can she really stop the hiccups?

From the publisher

Arthur has the hiccups, and none of the traditional cures suggested by his parents help. Ignoring his pesky sister D.W., who claims she knows how to get rid of them, he calls on his friends for help. The Brain suggests standing on his head; Buster says laughter is the best cure and reads him jokes; Muffy’s old family cure is licking a lollipop while hanging upside down. But nothing does the trick. Dejected and still hiccuping, Arthur goes to bed. And that is when D.W. proves she really does know how to get rid of hiccups.
