Woof!

Emily: "that'’s snow lie."

Boy: come on! Let'’s hurry!
Come on! Let'’s go!

[Kids laughing
and chattering]

On the count of ,
down the hill,
emily elizabeth.

Okay!

...

...

!

Hey!
[Grunts]

Why aren'’t you running,
emily?

Well, I'’ve never
used one of these
round sleds before.

I'’m not so sure
I can do it right.

Don'’t worry
about that.

You wouldn'’t be
the only one.

[Laughing]

Ah, come on.
Try it.

Okay.

Here we go!

[Laughing]

[Out of breath]
that was great!

Let'’s do it again!

Emily elizabeth:
ha ha! I love this!

Okay, guys!
Look out!

Here comes my famous
hop, hop, and slide.

Go, "t"!

You can do it, "t"!go for it, t-bone!

Hop...
Hop...

And slide.

Whoo-hoo!
"T"! "T"!
"T"! "T"!

My turn!

Here I come, t-bone!

Hop, hop,

And slide.

Wow.
Slide-o-mazing!

Now you go, cleo.

Oh, no, no.
No, no, no, no.

That'’s okay,
clifford.

You can go next.

Okay.

Stand back,
everybody.

I'’m going to hop, hop,
and slide.

Clifford: ready?

Here I come!
Wahoo!

[Boom]

Huh?

Oops.
Oops.
Uh-oh.

Maybe I'’ll just skip
straight to the "slide"
part.

Good idea, big guy!

Here I go!

Whee!

Whoa!

[Crash]

Ha ha!
That was great!

Now you go, cleo.

Uh...okay.

Sure.
I'’ll go.

Here I come.
Whoa!

Are you okay,
cleo?

Yeah.

Cleo, did you
hurt yourself?

Hurt...myself?

Gosh, I hope not.

Then she couldn'’t skate
with us anymore.

Yeah. Then I couldn'’t
skate anymore.

It didn'’t look like
a bad fall.

Um...no, but I think
I might have bruised
my paw.

Ow! Ow! Ow!

Oh, yeah. Oh, yeah.
I definitely hurt
my paw.

I should go get
emily elizabeth.

Or mrs. Diller.

Or dr. Dihn.

Oh, no, no, no.
I'’m okay, really.

I just need
to rest my paw.

Let'’s fix a place
where cleo can sit
and rest for a while.

There.
How'’s that?

A snow couch?
Cool!

It'’s perfect.
Thanks, clifford.

You'’re welcome.

Ooh, hey,
you want me to show you

My latest
ice skating routine?

Sure.

Okay, here goes!

Cool, mac!
Go for it!

Great, mac!

Emily elizabeth: clifford!

Emily elizabeth!

I guess it'’s time
to go home, huh?

Can I give you
a ride, cleo?

Sure!

We'’re going home!
You coming, mac?

Mmm, no, thanks.

I think
I'’ll stay here

And practice
my triple-fliple.

Okay, see you, mac.t-bone: see you, mac!

Cleo: bye!

There you go, cleo.

Thanks,
clifford.

Uh, cleo...

Wasn'’t it
your other paw
that you hurt?

[Gasps]

Oh, no!
It'’s spreading!

Both of my paws
are bruised now.

I better go
lie down.

Uh, bye.

Gosh, I hope she'’s
going to be okay,
clifford.

I hope so, too,
t-bone.

I had a really fun day
today, clifford.

Charlie brought these
saucer sleds to the park,

And I'’ve never ridden
a sled like that before.

I was afraid
I was going to be
really bad at it

And get totally embarrassed.

I didn'’t even want
to try it at first.

[Grunts]

But the more
times I slid,

The better I got.

Now I can'’t wait
to go sledding again
tomorrow!

[Grunt]

Woof.

See you later,
clifford.

Wow. Emily elizabeth
was afraid to go on
that new sled today.

I wonder
if cleo was afraid
to go out on the ice?

Maybe that'’s why
she said her paw hurt.

[Barking]

[Barking and growling]

Hee hee!
Ha ha!

Clifford: hey, cleo.

[Toy squeaks]

[Gasps]
uh-oh.

T-bone:
you feeling
better today?

We'’re going back
to the ice rink.

Oh, great.

[Moaning]

Going back
to the ice rink,
huh?

We were going to,
but if your paw
still hurts...

Oh, yeah. Yeah.
It'’s still pretty sore.

Wasn'’t it
your front paw
you hurt?

Huh?
Oh, yeah!

[Gasps]
it must be spreading!

Oh, that'’s too bad.

But don'’t you
worry about me.

I'’m just fine
with going back
to the ice rink.

I love
watching you guys.

Come on.
Follow me.

It'’s really weird
how her sore paw
keeps moving around, huh?

Yeah, it is.

Come and try
my slippy-twirly
spin-thing, mac.

It'’s fun.
Wahoo!

[Cheering]
that does look fun.

Let me try.

[Laughing]

Come on, mac.
Try it.

I don'’t know
how to do that.

I'’ll look ridiculous.

Ah, don'’t worry.

No one does it perfect
the first time.

Well, okay.
I'’ll try.

I think mac
was kind of
afraid to try,

But look
at him now.

He sure is
having fun.

[Laughing]

Yeah!
Whoa!

[Laughing]

It does look
kind of fun.

I want
to try it!

Oops!

Uh, maybe your paw
is better, cleo.

What don'’t you
try it and see?

Great idea,
clifford.

Hey, would you
look at that?!

It is better.
Ha ha!

How about that?

Well,
come on, then.

Let'’s get
on the ice.

Wahoo!

Okay.
Here goes.

Whoa!
Unh!

Ha ha ha ha!
This is really great.

What about
your sore paw?

Yeah.

Guys,
I have to tell you
the truth.

I didn'’t really
hurt my paw.

Huh?

Then why'’d you tell us
you did, cleo?

I guess I was
kind of afraid.

You were afraid?
Of what?

Well, I'’ve never
skated before.

I guess I was afraid
I was going to be
really bad at it,

And you guys
would laugh

At how silly
I looked.

We all look
pretty silly,
cleo.

But trying new things
with your friends is fun.

You'’re right!

What was
I thinking?

So let'’s all have fun

And do my slippy-twirly
spinny-thingy together.

Ha ha ha!
Okay, let'’s do it!

[Cheering]

How about
a little help, big guy?

Okay.

Yahoo!

Thanks,
clifford.

You'’re welcome,
cleo.

Emily elizabeth: clifford!

It'’s story time.

You want to hear
a speckle story,
don'’t you?

Woof, woof

[Giggles]
I thought so.

He'’s your favorite.

Today'’s story is...

"Speckle and
the music makers."

One sunny afternoon,
speckle and his friends

Thought it would be fun
to make their own band.

They imagined
all the wonderful music
they would make.

All they needed now
was some instruments,

Which they didn'’t have.

Then, speckle got an idea.

He picked up a paper tube

And blew into it
like a trumpet.

[Trumpet plays]

Reva took a glass of water
and a spoon

And created
a tinkling chime.

[Drums playing]

Darnell and luna
used pots and lids

As drums and cymbals.

But ravi
didn'’t know what to do.

Speckle said there was still
one thing their band needed--

Someone to lead them!

They all soon discovered
that the very best part
of being a band

Was making music together.

The end.

That was a great story.

Isn'’t reading fun?

[Woof]

[Laughs]

"A friend in need."

Whoa!

[Laughing]
well, hello, clifford.

It'’s nice
to see you, too.

I'’ve been busy
getting ready for

"Keep birdwell island
beautiful" day.

Woof, woof.

See you later,
clifford.

[Bell ringing]

We need to get ready
for the big celebration
tomorrow!

Ms. Carrington: so, I need
volunteers to clean up

Around the bandstand
in birdwell park.

The bandstand is where
the big "keep birdwell
island beautiful" ceremony

Will take place.

So, everyone is
going to see it?

I guess you'’re right.
Everyone will see it.

I'’ll do it,
ms. Carrington!

Why, thank you,
jetta.

And who would like
to help?

Oh, that'’s okay,
miss carrington.

I can do it myself.

Huh?
Huh?

Are you sure,
jetta?

It'’s an awfully
big job.

Oh, it'’s no problem
for me.

I'’m sure I can do
an amazing job.

[Whispering]
jetta always wants
to be the star.

Well, I suppose
you could try, but--

Thank you,
ms. Carrington.

I'’ll start right away.

Okay.

And, finally,
I'’ll need some volunteers
for the pier.

Okay.
Charley and
emily elizabeth.

Clifford: woof.

[Giggles]
and clifford,
of course.

Woof!

[Boom]

Here comes clifford!here comes clifford!

Hiya, clifford.

Hey, clifford,
come to help us, boy?

Woof, woof.

[Splash]

You better
go get it, boy.

Woof, woof, woof.

Woof, woof.

[Panting]

[Children laughing]

Aw, thanks for helping,
clifford,

But we'’re
almost done here.

Why don'’t you go see
if someone else
could use your help?

Woof.

[Splash]

♪ Tomorrow
everyone will see ♪

♪ The great job
that I'’ve done ♪

♪ Then they all will agree ♪

♪ That I am number one ♪

[Humming]

Huh?

Woof.

Oh, hi, clifford.

Woof, woof.

Um, you know,
I'’m really trying
to clean up here,

So could you
just sit quietly?

Over there.

[Whimpering]

Don'’t worry,
clifford.

I'’ll be
done soon.

Wow. There'’s a lot more
work to do here

Than I thought
there'’d be.

This place
looks really great.

Yeah.

I can'’t wait until
the party tomorrow.

I wonder
how jetta'’s doing--

Trying to take care
of the whole big
bandstand area

All by herself?

Let'’s go.

Oh, I got to
finish this sign,

And then I got to
pick up the leaves,

And then
wash the chairs,

And then decorate,
and--

Well, at least
the banner'’s done.

Everyone'’s
going to love it!

Huh?

Oh, no!

I'’m stuck!

Jetta: I can'’t get
my foot out.

Uh-oh!
Jetta needs help!

Oh, no!

Look at the mess
I'’m making!

Oh, now
I'’m never going to
finish by tomorrow.

Unh!

Ew!

[Laughing]

Are you okay,
jetta?

Do I look okay?

Look at me!

Look at
this place!

What a mess.

I'’m going home
to take a bath.

Can we help you
clean up here?

No.

I can do it
myself.

[Whimpers]

She'’s never
going to finish this
by tomorrow

All by herself.

Well, you
offered to help,
emily elizabeth,

And she said no.

Poor jetta.

I wonder
if there'’s something
I can do to help?

Hi, charley.

Hey, emily,
watch this!

Oops.

Ha ha!
Good one, charley.

Have you
seen clifford?

No, but I'’ll
help you
look for him.

Great.
Let'’s go.

Charley:
look, emily elizabeth.

There'’s clifford.

Clifford, are you
trying to help jetta?

Woof.

Oh, that'’s
really nice of you.

I'’ll help, too.

Woof.

What are
you doing, emily?

Clifford has
the right idea.

We'’re going to help
jetta finish in time.

Why?

Because she really
needs our help, charley.

I think it'’s just hard
for jetta to admit it.

So, you want
to help us?

I don'’t know.

Come on, charley.

We can be
like secret elves
and surprise jetta.

I think clifford
wants me to help.

Okay, clifford.
It might be kind of fun.

Great!

Woof.

[Grunts]

Woof.

It looks great,
doesn'’t it?

Jetta is really
going to be
surprised.

Hey, let'’s hide,
and wait for her
to come back.

Great idea!

I can'’t wait
to see the look
on her face!

Oh, I'’m never going to
finish the park in ti--

Wow!

How did this happen?

Clifford!

Clifford,
did you do this?

Well,
that'’s just about
the nicest thing

Anyone has ever done
for me.

Thank you, clifford.

You were right,
emily elizabeth.

It feels pretty good
helping a friend out.

It sure does.

Emily elizabeth?
Charley?!

Uh-oh.
She sees us!

Did you and clifford
finish the job for me?

Well...
Uh...

I told you guys
I didn'’t want any help,

But I'’m sure
glad you didn'’t
listen to me.

Huh?
Huh?

Thank you,
guys.

I never
would have finished
without your help.

Well, friends
are supposed

To help
each other.

Emily elizabeth,
you and charley
are the best.

Woof.

[Laughing]

And clifford, too.

Woof.

[Laughter]

Can'’t get me!

Ha!
Clifford'’s it.

Okay, I'’m it,
but first,
let'’s eat.

Emily elizabeth:
clifford and I both love
playing with our friends.

It'’s fun to be together,

Especially when you share.

Having a picnic today
was a great idea,
clifford.

Yeah, I brought a whole bag
of my favorite dog treats.

They'’re so good.

Who wants to try one?

Clifford: I do!

Cleo: you bet!mac: me, too!

Mine are delicious,

Yum.
