It took me a little while to figure just exactly what Arthur was. But
long before I had conclusively determined that he was, indeed, an
aardvark, I decided that I liked him. He's such a nice kid, and his
everyday adventures are something that schoolchildren can easily relate
to. Bullies, new classmates and pesky little sisters are just a few of
the things that Arthur has to deal with as he goes through his day. He
doesn't always get it right the first time, but eventually he learns how
to face each obstacle that comes his way.
His furry friends add to
the fun he finds out on the baseball diamond, in the classroom, and at
home. They add a new dimension to his life which was first made popular
through the books. Most of his friends are as hard to categorize as him.
There's a rabbit, but other than that the species of the others are
difficult to determine. I guess that just goes to show that it's what's
on the inside, not the outside, that's important.
