Clifford's Best Friendsx$2.19
 (5 reviews)
Best Price: $9.98 $2.19
Based on Norman Birdwell's Clifford the Big Red Dog books, this PBS Kids series features bright animation and favorite Clifford characters like Clifford, Emily Elizabeth, Cleo, and T-Bone. This 45-minute compilation includes four episodes that explore the complexities of friendship. "My Best Friend" finds Emily Elizabeth searching for a special item to bring to school for show and tell. Her classmate Jenna's disdain over her initial selection makes Emily Elizabeth frantic, but when she considers what's really important in her life, the choice is suddenly quite obvious. When Mac abruptly befriends Cleo in "False Friends," Cleo is so delighted that she begins to shun her older friends Clifford and T-Bone. The question is whether this new friendship is based on genuine liking or something else. In "New Friend," Clifford, Cleo, and T-Bone feel uncomfortable around K.C., a three-legged dog who's visiting the neighborhood. Condescension, avoidance, and pity help the dogs deal with their discomfort, but eventually the trio learns to look past K.C.'s differences and discovers a great new friend. Finally, in "The Dog Who Cried Woof," Cleo's repeated teasing lands her in an uncomfortable situation in which she learns an important lesson about trust. Clifford promotes acceptance and friendship in this entertaining, 45-minute video. (Ages 2 to 7) --Tami Horiuchi

Both of my kids watch this one over and over and over again!
By A1W0J0KB3SZXO8 on 2001-07-09
I bought this for my 2.5 year old son, because he just can't get enough of "big red dog", but I'm amazed that my 6 year old likes to watch it too! It runs usually 4-5 times a day and at least one of my kids watches it every time! It teaches great lessons about friendship and how to treat others. I've even found myself getting drawn into it at times. It brings back great memories of when I was a child myself! This is a must have for any parent of small children!!
My 2 year old loves it

My daughter absolutley loves the antics of Clifford and his friends. The message the video sends about real friends and acceptance of others are wonderful, yet they are stated in terms that even a two year old can grasp. I enjoy watching Clifford with her, because it is not a syrupy and sappy as some of the other children's shows out there. I am sure that other children will love the big red dog as much as mine does!
Clifford is our friend too!

This is one of the 4 clifford videos that we have. Both my 2 year old AND my 4.5 year old are Clifford lovers. Clifford is one video that they both want to watch. As a parent I like the gentle nature of the show, the morals, and its overall kid appeal and fun! I also like it because it is not too long that the kids become a couch potato, its a good length. This video (like all the others) is basically some of the same stories that are played on PBS. This particular Clifford video "Best Friends" is one of the most requested, and I even find myself interested in Clifford and his friends...especially the "whiffy the skunk ghost with its stinky stink" story, that is so cute! We love Clifford, and could own ALL the videos! I can bet that most kids would like this series, but if you have to choose just one...this one is a good choice!

My daughter was born with birth defects and uses prosthetic legs. This tape, specifially the story featuring KC has helped her friends learn how to treat her. We love Clifford
