About this listen

Clifford the Big Red Dog has some bad habits, such as chasing after cars, digging up flowers, and chewing shoes. But his owner, the affectionate and devoted Emily Elizabeth, wouldn't trade him for the world in Norman Bridwell's endearing classic children's book about the inseparable bond between a pint-sized girl and her giant, goofy red dog.

Stephanie D'Abruzo’s warm, inviting delivery makes this a truly joyful listen, and the cartoonish sound effects and colorful musical score will have small children playing this adorable gem on repeat.

I loved this audiobook but I was a bit disappointed that my favorite narrator only read the epilogue

I absolutely adore Clifford the Big Red Dog! As a parent, I can't express how much joy this series has brought to our family. My daughter was instantly captivated by Clifford's bright red color and enormous size, but what keeps us coming back is the beautiful friendship between Clifford and Emily Elizabeth.

The stories are simple yet profound—each adventure teaches valuable lessons about kindness, loyalty, and accepting others for who they are without ever feeling preachy. I love how Clifford's size, which could be seen as a problem, becomes an opportunity to help others and spread love throughout Birdwell Island. The illustrations are vibrant and engaging, perfect for keeping little ones focused during storytime.

What really stands out is how relatable the situations are. Whether it's making mistakes, feeling different, or learning to be a good friend, my child sees herself in these stories. Clifford shows that being different is something to celebrate, and that true friendship means loving someone unconditionally—flaws and all.

The books are perfectly paced for bedtime reading, and the TV adaptations have been wonderful for screen time that I actually feel good about. After over 60 years, there's a reason Clifford remains a beloved character—he represents everything we want our children to be: kind, helpful, brave, and loving.
