James MacDonald

James MacDonald is a preschooler who attends the Elwood City Preschool, which is the same preschool that D.W. goes to. He and D.W. are also friends.

He has an older sister named Molly who is very over- protective of him and worries about him a lot which annoys James in the fourth grade who goes to Lakewood Elementary School. Despite Molly being mean, James is kind and caring making him an easy target for being manipulated by the Tibble Twins.

Appearance
James wears a light green button t-shirt with denim shorts. He also wears glasses and appears to be very clumsy in the episodes that he has appeared in.

Trivia

 * In the episode Arthur Makes Waves, James' mom is shown as a rat, even though Molly and James are rabbits. This has brought up the speculation they are adopted or their parents divorced and remarried, or like Emily is mixed. This was further indicated in the "Last King of Lambland," when a rabbit was shown in Scotland and was James and Molly`s uncle Miles.
 * In earlier episodes a rabbit similar to James (down to size, clothes, and even glasses) can be seen on the Mary Moo Cow TV show.
 * While James can be seen in earlier episodes his first speaking appearance and name-debut is not revealed until much later on the in the preschool year.
 * James' trade mark would be asking to go to the bathroom.
 * In Kiss and Tell, D.W.'s friend Emily said she was kissed by a French boy named Pierre, in which D.W. wanted to be kissed, too. She decided on kissing James (even though Emily said something bad would happen if she did), and tried several times, but failed. Finally, she told James that she wanted him to kiss her, and he kissed her on the cheek. D.W. seemed shocked after this, hinting that she might have feelings for James, and when Emily came to talk to her about it, Emily said that Pierre only kissed her on the hand, not the cheek.
 * In the episode, "The Night of the Tibble" James has a pillow on his bed saying "Far West".
