“I was having fun at grandma's house, but I kept thinking about Clifford.
I wondered if he was thinking of me.

He was. He loves his mom, but as soon as he could, he hurried home. So did I . . .

. . . because I am thankful for Clifford, and he is thankful for me.”
― Norman Bridwell, Clifford's Thanksgiving Visit

“Many Halloweens ago, he was just a tiny red puppy.
I wanted to take Clifford out trick-or-treating.
But the mask and hat didn’t fit.
He was not a happy clown.”
― Norman Bridwell, Clifford's First Halloween
