About This Book
In this classic Clifford story, the beloved big red dog faces a challenge common to many children: dealing with new neighbors who aren't immediately friendly. Clifford's well-meaning actions, often magnified by his size, are repeatedly met with disapproval from the grouchy new family next door. The book gently explores themes of perseverance, kindness, and understanding, as Clifford and Emily Elizabeth try to bridge the gap. It's a sweet, reassuring tale about not giving up on people and finding common ground, perfect for ages 4-8.
