Trivia
Differences from the book
- The tent is relatively narrow on the inside, and it has canvas on the bottom, and the boys often slept with their feet sticking out. In the book, the tent was larger in size, and it did not have canvas on the bottom, allowing the people to put their sleeping bags among other things on the grass.
- The tent was reddish-orange; although in the book, it was yellow.
- Bitzi had blonde hair in the book when she was introduced. In the cartoon, like all other episodes, her hair is auburn.
- When Jane calls Bitzi to whether or not Buster may come over for a sleepover, Bitzi was at work at the Elwood City Times; although in the book, it did not specify if Bitzi was at work or if she was at home. Bitzi also did not have any dialogue in the book, but a sentence said she did all the talking while on the phone.
- In the book, when Arthur was walking to school with his friends, Prunella was walking with them; but in the cartoon, Prunella was not included in any scene.
- Out of the pajamas that Arthur, Buster, and the Brain were wearing: Arthur was wearing his blue summertime pajamas, Buster was wearing light blue summertime pajamas, and the Brain was wearing a yellow sleepshirt and orange and yellow striped pajama pants; although in the book, Arthur was wearing a yellow sleepshirt and blue and white striped pajama pants, Buster was wearing a red sleepshirt and white pajama pants with yellow polka-dots, and the Brain was wearing a white sleepshirt and blue pajama pants.
- D.W. was wearing her cream-colored summertime pajamas; although in the book, she was wearing pink two-piece footsie pajamas with dark pink polka-dots.
- When the tent collapses, the boys stay in place; in the book, they run around until they hit a tree.
- In the book, Arthur mentions that he almost stopped breathing and Buster mentions that he almost wet his pants; but the cartoon doesn't mention those incidents at all.
- The Brain's lantern is red and white with a white lampshade; although in the book, the lantern was Arthur's and it was red and white with a white lampshade on the cover, and it was white and red with the CAMPLITE name on it and had a red lampshade inside the book.
- In the book, the boys ate pizza and other snacks; but in the cartoon, they did not eat pizza, but only snacks.
- In the end, Arthur and his friends happily welcomed D.W. into their tent, and then she decided she was better off in her room; although in the book, she stayed in her room.
- Also in the end, the boys started to go to sleep, and then a firefly came by; although in the book, they started jumping around.
