Read this book to find out what Arthur does.
I liked this book because Kate was so cute and so sweet. This is a good book for kids to read who have a baby in the family. They will be able to understand what Arthur and D.W. are going through.
The part that I liked the best is the ending of the story because Kate loves Arthur and he helped her stop crying by burping her.
I felt happy as I read this book. I thought about how hard it was to take care of a baby. Arthur helping Kate made me feel so good, because at first Arthur was scared to take care of Kate.
I recommend this book because it will make you happy. Kate is a cute baby, too. Kids will like to read this story because the characters are animals, who are like kids, and they talk!
