What I like: I have read this book to my boys so many time I have it memorized, and I'm still not tired of it - that must mean it is a good book. This is an introductory book to Emily Elizabeth and her big red dog Clifford.
What I do not like: nothing - the book is great.
Recommendation: Every public library should have at least one Clifford book. I would buy this book for my library (medium public library). ( )

This book keeps kid's imaginations going. As a child, this was one of my favorite books to read.

This is an example of modern fantasy because it is not realistic to have a dog that big in real life. The other things in the book that have to do with taking care of a pet are realistic, but they get blown out of proportion because Clifford is so big, such as his taking a bath in a large pool, having a dog house bigger than Emily Elizabeth's house, and playing fetch with a stick and bringing back a stick along with the police officer who is carrying his stick.

This is a classic book from my childhood and it is cute story about Emily and her dog and their relationship.
