"This is not a very strong Clifford book. It would be a good book for a child to practice reading, but that is how it also feels. It doesn't really have a story. It just describes Clifford. He's big. He's red. There are other red dogs. There are other big dogs. etc. etc. It's kind of boring. If you're looking for a Clifford book to read to a child, I would not pick this one. If you're looking for a Clifford book to help a child practice reading, this would be a good one to use - until they get bored with it. Check out some of the other Clifford books for better ones, Small Red Puppy, Firehouse, Halloween, Champion, etc."

Clifford the Big Red Dog Norman Bridwell 9781338304732 Books Reviews
- My almost 2-year-old son LOVES dogs and has recently been interested in the Clifford show on PBS...we got him this book and he absolutely loves it! It's a great board book for dog or Clifford-lovers! It has 28 pages (14 pages to turn), the pages are nice and heavy so they cannot be torn, and the sentences on each page are short and simple.
The story goes I'm Emily Elizabeth, and I have a dog. My dog is a big red dog. Other kids I know have dogs too. Some are big dogs. And some are red dogs. But I have the biggest, reddest dog on our street. This is my dog Clifford. We have fun together. We play games. I throw a stick and he brings it back to me. He makes mistakes sometimes. We play hide-and-seek. I'm a good hide-and-seek player. I can find Clifford, no matter where he hides. We play camping out, and I don't need a tent. He can do tricks too. He can sit up and beg. Oh, I know he's not perfect. He has some bad habits. He runs after cars. He catches some of them. He runs after cats too. We don't go to the zoo any more. He digs up flowers. Clifford loves to chew shoes. It's not easy to keep Clifford. He eats and drinks a lot. His house was a problem, too. But he's a very good watchdog. The mean boys don't come around any more. One day I gave Clifford a bath. And I combed his hair, and took him to the dog show. I'd like to say that Clifford won first prize. But he didn't. I don't care. You can keep all your small dogs. You can keep all your black, white, brown, and spotted dogs. I'll keep Clifford...Wouldn't you? - The side columns are unnecessary and take away from the story. They each have a symbol that is supposed to correspond to each manner, and then all the symbols are on the front and back pages. The symbols don't do a good job of depicting the manners, so they are useless to a kid. There is no story line like the other Clifford books. It's basically a list of manners in book form. Not very exciting or interesting.
- This is not a very strong Clifford book. It would be a good book for a child to practice reading, but that is how it also feels. It doesn't really have a story. It just describes Clifford. He's big. He's red. There are other red dogs. There are other big dogs. etc. etc. It's kind of boring. If you're looking for a Clifford book to read to a child, I would not pick this one. If you're looking for a Clifford book to help a child practice reading, this would be a good one to use - until they get bored with it. Check out some of the other Clifford books for better ones, Small Red Puppy, Firehouse, Halloween, Champion, etc.
- DO NOT ORDER! It doesn't come in like the picture says! Its one book that says "you've been fooled". Congrats on ruining a 3 year olds birthday, who really loves Clifford.
- My grandson enjoyed reading Clifford's Manners books. He can't wait to find out what happens at the end of the story. I would recommend these series of books to other friends and family members with children who enjoys reading, and the desire to continue exceling in reading.
- Colorful. We got red because infants can see the color very well. Good size for travel. Minimal wording. Pages haven’t torn which is nice.
- Clifford has been around for a long time. A new generation of young kids are enjoying hearing about him. The book is illustrated so that it is easy for the students to follow the story with the pictures.
- I downloaded this on my iPad for my 3 year old granddaughter. She really didn't enjoy the experience as much as turning pages in a real book, looking at pictures, and interacting with the story. She much prefers her Clifford paperbacks which we read again and again.
