Talk about a DVD that I love...  
I was not really sure what to expect when I started the Arthur DVD...  BUT  - I did know that Bullying is REALLY a big deal....  and I want Broxton prepared...
I believe that The Last Tough Customer is my favorite out of all of them...   It was a great way to see how bullying has an impact of those around you... but I also felt the same about So Funny I Forgot to Laugh...  All in all, I loved this DVD and was very happy to know it is part of our DVD collection now !

On this DVD:
The Last Tough Customer - The Tough Customers realize it's time to quit bullying and set out to find a new hobby - but can Molly ever truly change her ways?
Brain's Chess Mess - Brain starts a chess club at school to improve his game and beat Los Dedos, the local chess master.  Who knew the best player in the club would be .. Rattles???
So Funny I Forgot To Laugh - Arthur things his jokes about Sue Ellen's new sweater are all in good fun but Sue Ellen's feelings are hurt.  Has Arthur become ...  a bully?
The Best Day Ever - It's a beautiful afternoon and everyone is reminiscing about their "best days."  Everyone, that is , except Arthur.  Is it possible he doesn't have one? 

DVD:
 As teachers and parents across the nation educate kids 
about the impact of bullying, the new DVD “ARTHUR 
STANDS UP TO BULLYING” presents an outstanding 
way to reinforce those lessons. In four entertaining 
episodes, the world’s most famous aardvark, Arthur Read, 
and his family and friends, stand up to bullying, learn

Outstanding Children’s Animated Program, as well as the 
prestigious George Foster Peabody Award.
