D.W. is lost without Blankie, so she and Arthur scour the neighborhood for it. Later that night D.W. learns her mother has taken the blanket to wash it. As readers have come to expect from Brown's Arthur books, the situation is a realistic one, and the humor and cheerful artwork balance the gentle didacticism.
