06:55Words are more powerful than you can imagine.
07:03Phew!
07:07Clap.
07:10I can read more words, too.
07:15Dance.
07:25That was very good, Arthur.
07:28Thanks.
07:30Dance.
07:40Everyone did a great job today.
07:43We'll practice more reading tomorrow.
07:52Now Arthur reads everywhere.
07:55He reads in the car.
07:57Wow! I never knew that hummingbirds beat their wings 70 times per second.
08:04He reads in bed.
08:06He reads in bed.
08:08Arthur, it's time to turn the light out.
08:11Okay. I'm almost done.
08:15He reads to his puppy, Pal.
08:18Wait a minute. You've got to hear about this.
08:22This book is about all the fun things dogs can learn to do.
08:26Bark! Bark! Bark!
08:28Woof! Woof!
08:37Woof! Woof! Woof!
08:45I can't wait to read that book.
09:02Achoo!
09:07Hey, Mom. This book is about birds.
09:11Did you know that birds are descendants of dinosaurs?
09:15Yes, dear. I did hear something about that.
09:28Wow!
09:36Woof! Woof! Woof!
09:38Woof! Woof! Woof!
09:40Woof! Woof! Woof!
09:50Very funny, D.W.
09:55Woof!
09:58This story has wolves, trolls, dragons, and witches with cats.
10:04Woof! Woof! Woof! Woof!
10:06Oh, it's okay, Pal. They're only in my book.
10:14Pal, this book is really scary.
10:20You don't scare me, Pal.
10:24Woof!
10:29Where did you come from?
10:32Woof! Woof! Woof!
10:34Woof!
10:45Pal, quit hogging the covers.
10:49Woof!
10:54Here's the part about dogs that can do tricks.
10:59They can bounce on a ball.
11:03They can stand on one paw.
11:07Pal, maybe someday you can do that.
11:11Woof! Woof! Woof!
11:16Woof! Woof! Woof!
11:18Woof! Woof! Woof!
11:20Woof! Woof! Woof!
11:23Okay, Pal. I was just reading about Dalmatians.
11:27They have black and white spots and they sometimes live in firehouses.
11:33They get to ride on the fire trucks.
11:36Wouldn't that be great?
11:46Woof! Woof! Woof!
11:48Woof! Woof! Woof!
11:53Here's the part about guide dogs for the blind.
11:57They help their owners cross the street and get to where they want to go.
12:05Careful, Pal. We might have an accident.
12:08Woof! Woof!
12:17Here's the part about huskies.
12:20Hey, Pal. You could grow up to be a sled dog and have exciting adventures in Alaska.
12:26Let's find a book that tells us more about sled dogs.
12:31Woof! Woof! Woof!
12:33Woof! Woof!
12:48Arthur even reads to his little sister, D.W.
12:52What book is that?
12:55It's a story about a little girl, her grandma, and a wolf.
13:01Little Red Riding Hood? That's one of my favorites.
13:05But she should be Little Pink Riding Hood. I like pink better.
13:10That would ruin the whole story, D.W.
13:15Nobody's ever heard of Little Pink Riding Hood.
13:30Fee-fi-fo-fum!
13:36Whoa!
13:49Has anyone seen Cinderella?
13:54Pa, I have to go to the bathroom.
13:58Aw, not again.
14:07Who turned out the lights? I can't see a thing.
14:11Where did everybody go? Get me out of here.
14:17Now that's more like it. Thanks, I needed that.
14:22Now that's more like it. Thanks, I needed that.
14:52Listen if you will to my story. The tale of a man, a woman, and their books.
15:00Quiet pal, we're trying to read.
15:26Oh
15:57We love it when Arthur reads us tales of two kitties.
16:21I can't read a thing without my glasses.
16:26Oh
16:42This is the story of Little Red Riding Hood.
16:46That's me!
16:48Grandma, what big ears you have.
16:58The better to hear you with my dear.
17:02Grandma, what big eye you have.
17:06The better to see you with my dear.
17:11Arrow!
17:13D.W. Sit down and let me finish.
17:25D.W. Look at this picture of the wolf.
17:35How'd you do that?
17:38Books are magic.
17:44Let Me Write is a game where you can put the objects on a page and write sentences with them.
17:52Move the objects in the picture around by clicking and dragging.
17:57Write the name of something by dragging the picture onto the word you want to change.
18:03Click here to get more words.
18:06Click the pencil to hear the sentence or you can click on each word.
18:10Click on each word.
18:12Now you try.
18:27Arthur liked the bear.
18:41So what did you think of that story, D.W.?
18:45Too short. Read me another one.
18:49Okay.
19:11One day, Arthur said,
19:15I can teach you to read too.
19:18I already know how to read.
19:21said D.W.
19:23You do not.
19:25said Arthur.
19:27Do too.
19:29said D.W.
19:40I'm hungry.
19:41I'm hungry.
20:09Hey!
20:10Watch your step!
20:12Ladder.
20:16Nuts.
20:22Bolts.
20:27Nails.
20:41Birds.
20:58Oh, there you are.
21:00I've been looking for you two.
21:02D.W.'s pretending she can read.
21:05I am not.
21:07Well, D.W.,
21:08pretend that Arthur can teach you.
21:10Have fun.
21:16Arthur.
21:19D.W.
21:25I'm red.
21:27I'm yellow.
21:29And I'm blue.
21:31We can make a rainbow.
21:39I'm green.
21:44You're yellow.
21:48I'm blue.
21:50We can make a rainbow.
21:52We can make a rainbow.
21:56I'm red.
21:59And I'm blue.
22:03We can make a rainbow.
22:05We can make a rainbow.
22:08You give me the blues, love recycling blues, you're throwing away what you can reuse.
22:23So try when you can, and please don't refuse, cause I'm singing love recycling blues.
22:39Hello everybody, we're here to say, we love it when you read us every day.
22:45So pick me, or me, or me, and take a good look, it's always a party when you read a good book.
23:00D.W., if you know how to read, how come your book was upside down?
23:07I can read in all directions.
23:17Look, Arthur, this bear is happy. Now he's sad.
23:23Happy, sad, happy, sad, happy.
23:28Oh, brother.
23:37You do not do too.
23:41Hmm.
23:43Prove it. Read ten words, D.W., and I'll buy you an ice cream.
23:49It's a deal. Let's go.
23:54Hmm.
23:56Prove it. Read ten words, D.W., and I'll buy you an ice cream.
24:02It's a deal. Let's go.
24:07They raced to the park. Arthur pointed to a sign.
24:12What's that say?
24:14He asked.
24:16Zoo, said D.W.
24:18Easy as pie.
24:21Arthur pointed to a sign.
24:23What's that say?
24:25He asked.
24:26Zoo, said D.W.
24:28Easy as pie.
24:51Help!
24:59Pal, why don't you go and play in the reptile house?
25:12Zoo.
25:21Zoo.
25:36That's the aviary. That's where the birds live.
25:41I knew that already.
25:52Ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha.
25:56Ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha.
26:00Ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha.
26:05Look, Arthur. I'm an elephant.
26:10Whoa!
26:12Ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha.
26:15D.W., you look like a tree.
26:19Ha-ha. Very funny.
26:22Why don't you make like a tree and leave?
26:29They have animals from all over the world.
26:33Lions and tigers and bears.
26:37I know. It is a zoo, Arthur.
26:43This game is called I Spy.
26:47It can be hard or medium or easy.
26:52Click on the level you want, then click play.
26:57Medium? Easy?
27:00Great! Let's play.
27:03I spy three things.
27:06Click on them when you find them.
27:08I spy a fence.
27:12Yes! That's it. That's the fence.
27:17I spy a dress.
27:22Great! You found the dress.
27:26One more to go.
27:29I spy a dog.
27:33I spy a dog.
27:37Yes! That's it. That's the dog.
27:42Hooray!
27:46You got them all.
27:48You found the fence and the dress and the dog.
27:57Do you want to play again?
28:00Okay.
28:07Well, you've only read one word.
28:10Nine more to go?
28:12This is easy. I'll probably read more than ten.
28:24No, Augie. It's time to go home.
28:30I spy three words.
28:33Said Arthur.
28:35Me, too.
28:36Said D.W.
28:38Taxi, gas, milk.
