What is D.W., the Picky Eater about?

D.W. is determined not to eat spinach—or anything else she dislikes. When her fussing turns into a noisy tantrum at a restaurant, her parents decide she must stay home while the family goes out. D.W. is not worried at first, but missing a special family celebration makes her change her mind. With help from Arthur and a little courage, she discovers that trying something new might not be as awful as she expected.
