[[Arthur Read|Arthur]] is explaining what his own book of world records would be like. [[Francine Frensky|Francine]] is in it for playing the drums the loudest. [[Buster Baxter|Buster]] is in it for telling the most jokes. [[Alan Powers|The Brain]] is in it for saying the most things that Arthur doesn't understand. [[D.W. Read|D.W.]] is even in it for watching the most reruns of ''[[Mary Moo Cow]]''. Because Arthur blocks the screen while D.W. is watching, she calls [[Jane Read|Mom]] who tells him to come here, After that, she explains she holds a world record for getting Arthur in trouble for the most times. | [[Arthur Read|Arthur]] is explaining what his own book of world records would be like.

[[File:504-1.png|thumb| | [[File:504-1.png|thumb|left|The Book of Incredible and Amazing World Records]]At the treehouse, Arthur presents a world record book to his friends. He thinks that together they could break a record. He reads some of the records, and his friends picture themselves breaking them. They all set off and try to break one of their own. The Brain tries to make the most inventions, [[Muffy Crosswire|Muffy]] attempts refrain from speaking the longest, Francine tries to kick a soccer ball non-stop, and Buster plans to walk backwards the longest. | ||
At [[Reads' House|Arthur's house]], he is making a house of cards. He imagines himself in fame for building the largest one. He prevents D.W. from entering his room. She slams her bedroom door and Arthur's card house falls. | At [[Reads' House|Arthur's house]], he is making a house of cards. He imagines himself in fame for building the largest one.

The following day, things are not going as planned while making the pizza. Muffy, Francine, and Binky leave for a break. Arthur is beginning to think his idea will be in the record books for "the biggest flop in history." Francine, Muffy, and Buster have arrived, and they have brought many volunteers with them. Together they finish the pizza, and start eating it. | The following day, things are not going as planned while making the pizza. Muffy, Francine, and Binky leave for a break.
