4 stars- A Fun Read
A brand-new, original Clifford early reader!
It only takes a little to BE BIG!
Clifford wants to play baseball with the kids, so he tries to find a bat his size: a tree, a utility pole, a pipe . . . nothing works, but in the end, the kids find a way to include Clifford in their fun!
The BE BIG campaign invites everyone, big and small, to take action and raise awareness for how CLIFFORD'S BIG IDEAS can make the world a better place.
Clifford's Big Ideas are:
Be a Good Friend * Share * Be Kind * Help Others * Be Truthful * Have Respect * Be Responsible * Play Fair * Work Together * Believe in Yourself (quoted from Goodreads).
Clifford wants to play baseball and when he can't find a bat to use, he starts to cry, as he wants to join the game. Not ones to let Clifford feel bad, the kids invite him to play in a fun game of baseball. I love beginning readers, especially when the stories not only capture my children's attentions, but they involve characters they know. Clifford's story is a fun, engaging story for both beginning readers and one that toddlers can enjoy.
