Clifford's New Friends
A new girl moved in next door. "I'm Martha," she said.
"And this is my dog, Bruno. He's a very big dog."
I said, "I'm Emily Elizabeth.
And this is my dog, Clifford. And he's big, too."
"Your dog may be bigger than Bruno,"
Martha said, "but Bruno's smarter.
I will show you some tricks."
Martha sent Bruno to bring her a paper.
So I sent Clifford to bring ME a paper.
(He got the newspapers!)
Martha said, "Bruno plays dead better than any dog I know."
He was pretty good.
But not as good as Clifford.
Now we both know who is the very best dog of all.
