Nickelodeon‘s beloved preschooler star returns for a new primetime special, Dora’s Great Roller Skate Adventure, premiering Sunday, Sept. 22, at 7 p.m. (ET/PT).
In the half-hour special, Dora wants to take Boots to Skate Park, but the mean Big Wheeler has shut down the park. Viewers must help Dora stand up to Big Wheeler so everyone can skate together. The episode addresses bullying and presents a “strength in numbers” message.
