I have watching a LOT of Arthur recently, and it's really rekindled my love for the show. I particularly enjoy episodes like "The Boy With His Head in the Clouds" and "Prunella Sees the Light" and "When Carl Met George." I think they should make an episode about someone with dyspraxia, so I wrote this. I would love it if Marc Brown sees this! So…does anyone know where I can contact someone who works for the show?
Trapped In Turmoil
Daisy sat in the back of the family car, sighing miserably. As the moving vehicle crept closer to Elwood City, the eight year old elephant felt a lurch in her stomach and she suddenly felt sick with nervousness. Her long grey trunk turned pale green and soon, the rest of her face was the same colour as mushy peas. Her mother, Mrs. King, noticed and turned around in her seat to see if her daughter was all right.
" Are you all right, Daisy? You look awfully pale!" she cried.
" I'm fine," the girl sighed again. " I just want to be liked at my new school, that's all."
" Don't be silly, honey! They'll love you!"
" Yes," Mr. King chimed in, keeping his focus on the road. " I've spoken to your principal and he said there are several pupils with additional needs, just like you! And in your classroom, there will be an assistant with you at all times."
Daisy rolled her eyes. " They said that in Crown City, and they did nothing to help me."
" Maybe this time it will be different," said Mrs. King, smiling.
