Adorable, and I don't even like the big red dog

Frankly, I am not a huge Clifford fan and usually I'm upset about the huge fanbase over him. However, this was a perfect first-day-back kind of book. The firt-person narrative interests the kids right off the bat, and the illustrations are a lot of fun. My favorite aspect is the understated writing that allows my students to practice predictions. Very cute and very funny.

Can show children that school is fun!

Baby Clifford gets to go to school with Emily. What I like about this book is how Clifford's blunders are resolved: when he goes down on a slide and ruins a sand castle, he helps the children build it back. The book also depicts a day care center with a very relaxed atmosphere and a caring teacher.
