Bookroo's summary
Arthur faces a smelly challenge when his sister D.W. bets she can teach Baby Kate to read in one afternoon. If D.W. wins, Arthur must change the baby's diapers. But D.W. has a clever trick up her sleeve. Can Arthur see through her plan and avoid the messy task, or will he need a trick of his own? The stakes are high, and the clock is ticking. Will Arthur's wits save him from diaper duty, or is he destined to lose this sibling showdown?
