Arthur faces his first day without his mom, feeling lost despite his dragon suit and toy. As he grumpily roars, Grandma steps in with a surprising solution. Can she turn his day around?

It’s Arthur’s first day apart from his mommy and he really misses her. Even his fantastic dragon suit and favorite toy dragon don’t help cheer him up. “Rargghh!” he roars grumpily. But luckily Grandma knows just what to do!
