Summary: The Best Christmas ever
Review: Clifford could not wait for Christmas. When santa came to Clifford's house he couldn't find a chimney. Then santa slipped and fell into Clifford's stocking. Clifford woke up to santa yelling and helped him out. All the gifts we're ruined because they fell into Clifford's big water bowl and got all wet. Clifford offered his gifts to santa but santa told him it was going to be all right and he fixed all the ruined toys. He left toys for Clifford and went on his way and wouldn't come back until next christmas.

Summary: Read to Your Child for Greater Bonding and Intellect!
Review: Researchers constantly find that reading to children isvaluable in a variety of ways, not least of which are instilling a love of reading and improved reading skills. With better parent-child bonding from reading, your child will also be more emotionally secure and able to relate better to others. Intellectual performance will expand as well. Spending time together watching television fails as a substitute.

To help other parents apply this advice, as a parent of four I consulted an expert, our youngest child, and asked her to share with me her favorite books that were read to her as a young child. Clifford's Christmas was one of her picks.

This book takes a very large dog's eye view of the Christmas season, beginning with Thanksgiving. Clifford is much larger than Emily Elizabeth or her house. In fact, Clifford is so large he is as big as a helium-filled turkey balloon at the Thanksgiving Day parade.

Clifford makes different kinds of snowmen, plays ice hockey differently, and brings home a Christmas tree that is only the right size for him (not the family). On Christmas, Clifford and Santa Claus have some interesting interactions.

The result is to help your child develop a nonhuman perspective that will expand her or his intelligence and perception. That's a wonderful benefit to get from such a simple story.

Overcome your misconception stall that everything about children has to be seen from a child's perspective for a child to learn.

Enjoy!

Summary: We like Clifford's Christmas
Review: We have a Bull Mastif and the kids liked comparing our helpful (and clumsy!) dog to Clifford. They especialy liked the way it ends because our family's dog is a wonderful friend who makes every day Christmas as well. :)

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: Cliffords Christmas isn't that good
Review: We really don't like the part where Santa's toys fall in Cliffords water dish. I would not suggest this book for you.
