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?

From the publisher

“Will Arthur figure out D.W.’s reading trick? “D.W. makes a bet with Arthur that she can teach Baby Kate how to read in a single afternoon. The loser of the bet has to change their little sister’s stinky diapers! D.W. devises a clever trick to make sure she wins the bet. But will Arthur fall for it–or come up with a trick of his own before the next diaper change is needed? “From the Trade Paperback edition.”
