The Little Pink Book/Field Trip - S1-E2
Other mistake: Field Trip: When Lockjaw goes back into the water after Harold throws his ice cream at him, there is a shot of Arnold looking sadly in Lockjaw's direction, and he is behind the wall like he should be. Two shots later, he is mistakenly placed in front of the wall instead of behind it. (00:15:28)

Other mistake: Field Trip: When Arnold is telling Grandma about Lockjaw, right before Grandma gets up from the couch, her left foot is meant to be on the floor, but it is instead overlapping the couch. Then, when she marches up to the couch while saying, "Like he's some sort of common criminal," her right foot overlaps the couch, and Arnold is kneeling on the backrest of the couch instead of the seat as he should be.

Other mistake: Field Trip: When Grandma uses the grappling hook to climb the wall, she falls to the other side, and she clips through the grappling hook. (00:19:17)
The Little Pink Book/Field Trip - S1-E2
Other mistake: When Arnold is reading the diary at the school the other kids ask him to read more. He says "OK, but it is the last page." There are more pages. When he starts to read, then it is the last page.
Answer: The episode doesn't really elaborate on who the kid was and what his motives were, so its pure speculation as to why he took it. Perhaps the kid could simply want a ball all for himself and decided to just take it, or was simply a rotten kid. The truth is the kid's motives are not important to the story other than it highlights Arnold was having a lot of trouble getting through the list.
