However, ''D.W. the Picky Eater'' shows a background story about D.W. hating spinach, so that book is certainly the prequel to ''this'' book. | ||

* When Arthur's family found out that he had chicken pox, D.W. said he had "polka-dots", but chicken pox isn't polka-dots, it's bumps all over the skin. | |||
* When D.W. promised Arthur to bring him home a balloon from the circus if he was being good and didn't scratch his chicken pox, she called him "little boy", but he's her older brother so she should've called him "big boy". ''She was teasing him.'' | |||

* When Arthur's friends made him "get well" cards, Francine and Muffy brought the cards and his homework for him; but the text only says that Muffy brought his homework despite Francine also helping, and she's on the page with her. This may be due to the fact that Francine made a cameo. | |||
* When D.W. came down the stairs as she finally caught the chicken pox after Arthur's had been healed up, her chicken pox only appeared on the final page. It might be likely intended to be a surprise to the readers. | * When D.W. came down the stairs as she finally caught the chicken pox after Arthur's had been healed up, her chicken pox only appeared on the final page.
