Learning to Read with Clifford the Big Red Dog Reading is Big Fun!

Everybody wants a dog like Clifford!

Clifford The Big Red Dog may be big and red, but as far as he's concerned he's just like any other dog.  That's why when Clifford tries to do what other dogs do, things can get a little out of hand.  Sometimes he gets into trouble. sometimes he saves the day. Most of the time he has a lot of fun.  All of the time he's a good dog and true friend!

Exploring Clifford's fun-filled neighborhood, children discover entertaining reading activities - all with seven levels that continually introduce new letters, sounds, and words.  After completing a level, children earn a bonus book they can read on their own using the skills they have just learned.

In addition, kids visit exciting places like the carnival-dunking booth and the movie theater where they collect tickets redeemable at the prize booth for special surprises!
