Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Big Red Fun
Review: A fun read for ankle biters of all sizes. Even the smallest of children will enjoy reading, and reading, and reading this classic compilation of trouble for the big red dog in his early years.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Clifford is a cutie!!
Review: Emily Elizabeth tells of Clifford's very first halloween, all the fun they had and how much trouble Clifford got himself into. But even though Clifford is big now, he is still just as much fun to read about and Emily Elizabeth still loves him.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: I like this book
Review: I like this book. Because it was funny, and I wonder what candie apples tastes like.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Halloween fun with Clifford
Review: My daughter loves this book because she is a big fan of Halloween. In this book we read about Clifford's first halloween when he was still a puppy. He gets dressed up as a ghost, gets into a jack-o-latern, tries to eat a candied apple, and gets scared in a haunted house. Your child will love this simple, yet fun book.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Clifford is a cutie!!
Review: There are many wonderful Halloween picture books out there, but Clifford's First Halloween isn't one of them.

The text is very boring and predictable, with lines like "Mommy made us candy apples." and "My neighbors were nice." Often the text doesn't correspond well with what's on the page. This is confusing for preschoolers. Older children won't mind when the very first page opens with "I'm Emily Elizabeth, the cat" but younger readers are confused. The same page shows a picture of a dog, and the little girl is wearing a cat costume. Honestly, the dog looks more like a cat than Emily Elizabeth does!

The pictures are NOT really humorous. They seem hastily assembled, and truly there are dozens of picture books for young children about Halloween which are very worthwhile. Sadly enough, this book just seems to be trading on the popularity of the Clifford, The Big Red Dog character.

Clifford's First Halloween is a picture book which doesn't have much to offer.

Summary: Clifford's First Holloween
Review: This book is called Clifford's first Halloween and it's about when Clifford wasn't so big he was a little puppy and he went out for Halloween so he needed a costume. He tried an angel and it didn't work so he tried a ghost and it was perfect. So they got all of the treats and boat that they could and after she had a party. You learn to have fun in life and you only live it once. I would recommend it.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Wonderful Kids' Book
Review: This book is perfect for kids. It's a cute story and is perfect for children who are learning how to read. If your little kids love to go trick or treating and love Halloween then they will love this book. It also shows kids that all the scary things during Halloween are fake and that you can just have a good time.
I would recommend this book to kids ages 3-5.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Clifford and The Pumpkin
Review: This book is very helpful in getting young children to learn about Halloween. Elizabeth and Clifford are a winning combination.
