Emily Elizabeth shares adventures with Clifford the big red dog

Elsa, a fifth grader, captivated her classmates by reading "Clifford the Big Red Dog" by Norman Bridwell. She introduced her beloved pet, Clifford, as the biggest and reddest dog on their street, sharing their playful adventures together.

Elsa described how they enjoy games like fetch and hide and seek, emphasizing her skill in finding Clifford no matter where he hides. She also highlighted Clifford's ability to perform tricks, such as sitting up and begging, while acknowledging his less desirable habits, like chasing cars and digging up flowers.

Despite the challenges of caring for such a large dog, including his appetite and the trouble he causes, Elsa proudly noted that Clifford serves as a great watchdog, keeping troublemakers away. She recounted a memorable day when she bathed Clifford and took him to a dog show, where he didn't win first prize, but that didn't dampen her spirits.

In her heartfelt conclusion, Elsa declared her love for Clifford, stating that she wouldn't trade him for any small or spotted dogs. Her reading not only showcased her enthusiasm for the story but also highlighted the special bond between a girl and her extraordinary dog.
