DW's Perfect Wish Arthur

# Every day you walk down the street Everybody that you meet

# Has an original point of view

-# And I say, hey!

-Hey!

# What a wonderful kind of day We can learn to work and play

# And get along with each other

# You gotta listen to your heart Listen to the beat

# Listen to the rhythm of the street

# Get together and make things better By working together

# It's a simple message And it comes from the heart

# Believe in yourself For that's the place to start

-# And I say, hey!

-Hey!

-What a wonderful kind of day

# We can learn to work and play And get along with each other

# What a wonderful kind of day - hey! What a wonderful kind of day - HEY! #

-Hey, DW!

-Hey...

Whoa!

If you make your own calendar, you can draw cool things for each month.

This year, I drew big stuff.

January - Bionic Bunny moves a huge iceberg.

February - Bionic Bunny versus a giant Valentine that wrecks buildings

and makes everyone fall in love.

Ee-vil!

March - Bionic Bunny brings a huge cake for DW's birthday on the 1st.

DW loves her birthday. Last year, she kept reminding us it was coming.

-..Speaking of birthdays...

-Who was speaking of birthdays?

No-one, but now you mention it...

-Don't forget my birthday!

-Yah!

This year will probably be worse.

Hey, today IS DW's birthday, but she hasn't said a word! Impossible!

-DW, did you forget your birthday's today?

-No.

How could I forget my own birthday? Leave me alone!

How could DW not be excited about her birthday?

-Arthur!

-Shh!

I said, leave me alone. Please!

I will once you tell me why you're not excited.

Do you really want to know? Do you think you REALLY want to know?

Um...yeah.

Oh, OK. Just checking.

It all started when I told Daddy what kind of birthday cake I wanted.

For my birthday - which is coming soon - I want a normal cake.

-Are you sure? How about a big, purple...

-Normal!

White frosting on top. White cake inside. No crunchy stuff.

No surprises.

Sure you don't want to try my Aloha Coconut cake with peach and banana?

-Daddy!

-I'm joking! Normal. Got it.

For my birthday, my Daddy's going to make me a normal cake with...

-You know, turning five is a big step.

-Yeah?

-..with white icing on top and...

-DW!

I'm five already. Listen to me.

When you're five, you cannot do the same things you did at four.

-What do you mean?

-I mean, you have to leave childish things behind.

You'll be going to real school - kindergarten.

Kindergarten!

You will never be a little kid ever again!

ECHOING: Ever again... Again... Again... Again!

And now, here it is, my birthday.

They'll give me normal cake, then - whammo - I'm five.

So?

I don't know if I'm ready. I'll never be four again.

Did I do all I could? Did I waste my fours? Did I squander my childhood?!

-No!

-No?! That's it?!

A simple three-letter-word like "no" doesn't make me feel better, Arthur.

-Oh, come on! You did plenty of great stuff, DW!

-Yeah?

-Like what?

-Like...you fooled the Tooth Fairy and got money.

Look! Look what the Tooth Fairy left me!

# I tricked the Tooth Fairy

# I tricked the Tooth Fairy... #

You also taught us all about fire drills.

No talking! Remain calm! Faster - there's a fire!

-What's it say?

-Three minutes nine seconds.

-Not bad,

-but we've got to get it down to 58 seconds.

-AWW!

And you got to go to the hospital and get stitches.

You were very brave, DW. It doesn't look so bad.

Well, it feels bad.

These are the golden memories of my childhood?

A buck, a fire drill and a fat lip?

OK, I'm sure there was more.

Em...yeah, remember when you learned to do flips...on the balance beam?

-Not exactly, Arthur.

-She's too scared to do it!

WHOA!

-Yeah, she's gonna chicken out!

-Whoa! Am not!

GASPS Ahhhhh!

WHISTLE BLOWS

I learned I was too young to do flips.

-I know, you made a deer friend when we went camping.

-Hi!

But I couldn't bring him home.

No, but Mr Rodgers came to our home.

# ..There are stops along the way

# For thoughts of all the soft things... #

-That song put me to sleep.

-It was supposed to - it's a lullaby.

But I was asleep so it's not one of my memories.

You weren't asleep when you met the President in the White House.

-Beautiful horse, huh?

-Yeah, do you work here?

For a couple of years now.

Maybe you can help me. My family got lost with another tour guide.

Follow me, I bet I can help you find them.

-Are there more pictures with horses?

-Lots, I'll point them out as we go.

So I met some people. How hard is that? I didn't do anything.

You helped build the chicken coop at Grandpa Dave's house.

And went to Crazy Bus Live.

And caught chicken pox from me.

-That wasn't fun.

-But I bet you'll never forget it.

-You rescued Cousin Lucy's ring to save her wedding.

-Thank you, D.W.

We couldn't have done it without you!

-And you took good care of Kate when she was born.

-I know what she wants!

I remember something else I did.

I saved a snowball in the freezer and somebody took it.

It wasn't me!

Can't you look at all the cool stuff you did? It was a great year.

Except for the snowball.

What's this for?

You made me remember how great I am.

You're my sister. I want you to have a happy birthday.

I'll be the coolest five-year-old!

Don't forget to make a wish later.

I know exactly what to wish for.

You can't wish for a million more wishes - it's against the rules.

You're such a spoil sport!

I'm going to make this wish count. I'll get ideas from Mommy and Daddy.

Mommy, I... Mom? Dad?

HAPPY BIRTHDAY!

Make a wish and blow out your candles.

-Go ahead and blow them out, honey.

-I don't know what to wish for, Arthur.

What did you wish for last year?

That's right, before Kate was born.

I remember making a wish and blowing out the candles.

But I can't remember the wish.

-I don't want to wish for the same thing.

-Hurry, that cake looks nice.

It has to be the perfect wish. You don't get this kind of power often.

-It must be used well.

-Why not wish for a happy year?

-It has to be something for me.

-Why not wish for a new pair of sneakers?

You don't wish for clothes - they just happen.

Wishes are for big things... like a pony.

-I have to advise you not to waste your wish.

-That's not a great idea.

-It won't come true, trust me.

-I'm not going to eat cake with wax on it.

Hurry up! Look, Kate's starving!

Think, think...

Think, think...

DW, you don't have to fret over your wish like this. On my birthday,

I wished that you and Arthur had happiness and everything you need.

And a grandma's wishes for her grandchildren always come true!

-So it's like I'm already covered wish-wise?

-Uh-huh.

Wow! Who else but Grandma would give up her own birthday wish for us?

Do we have to keep hugging so much?

-Shh!

-I know what I'm going to wish for now.

Finally!

WOOF! WOOF!

That's the best normal cake I ever had, Daddy.

-What did you wish for?

-It won't come true if I tell.

-Will you tell me AFTER it comes true?

-You'll know.

Look out!

PHEW!

What? You didn't think I'd let that big old cake hit me in the face?

Whoa!

Ohh!

-LAUGHING

-Boy, that was fast!

-What was fast?

-Oh, nothing.

-Hey, was this what you wished for?

-WOOF!

You're not supposed to tell a wish, remember?

(Even if it does come true!)

Hey, Pal, cut it out!

# And I say, hey!

# What a wonderful kind of day We can learn to work and play

# And get along with each other

# You gotta listen to your heart

# Listen to the beat Listen to the rhythm of the street

# It's a simple message And it comes from the heart

# Believe in yourself For that's the place to start
