[Laughter]

[Woof]

Oh, I don'’t know
about this, cleo.

Are you sure it'’s safe?

Have I ever
steered you wrong?

Well,
come to think of it--

Never mind.
Just go.

Go on, t-bone.
It'’ll be fun.

Ok...

If you say so.

Whoa!

Yippee!

You were right.
That was fun.

See? There'’s nothing
to be afraid of.

[Gasps]

[Gasps]

Wh-wh-what about that?

Oh! It'’s a monster!

And he'’s
at emily'’s school!

I'’m coming, emily!

Whoa!
Whoa!

Wow. This balloon
is big.

Yeah, I hope
we can fill it with air

In time
for the carnival,

Hmm.

Needs more air.

You know, jetta,
mr. Rodriguez says
we'’re a team

And that we'’re all
supposed to help make

The fall carnival
happen tonight.

I am helping.

I'’m making sure
that everyone gets
everything done.

[Dog barking]

Hey, clifford.

It'’s ok.
It'’s just a balloon

To help people find
the fall carnival tonight.

Hmm?

We'’re trying
to fill it with air,

But it'’s really big.

[Woof]

Great job,
clifford!

How about if you
tie it off now, jetta?

Fine. I will.

There. Perfect.

Aah!

[Laughing]

Whew.

That was the last basket
of pumpkins.

Good thing.

I don'’t think I can
lift another thing.

I know what you mean.

I'’m really tired, too...

But you still need
to put this last basket

Up there
on top of the sign.

What?!

No way!

We can'’t
do that.

We can'’t,

But clifford can.

Can'’t you, boy?

[Woof]

Great job.

Looks good,
clifford.

It was my idea.

All right, team,

We have to clean
this merry-go-round.

Emily elizabeth,
you wash.

Charley, you dry.

Whew. Luckily this is
our last job of the day,

Because I am too tired

To do another thing.

Jetta will never
be too tired

Of telling us
what to do, that is.

Hey, jetta.

How about if you dry

And I'’ll give the orders
for a while?

I don'’t think so,
charley.

If you'’re
part of the team,

You should do
part of the work.

Making sure
the work gets done

Is part of the work.

[Barking]

Look, guys.

Clifford'’s washing
the merry-go-round.

Emily:
pretty good, huh?

Hmm, not bad,

But I'’m in kind of
a hurry to get home.

I think he should go
a little faster.

Jetta: hurry up,
clifford.

Faster!

Uh, jetta,

Don'’t you think
that'’s a little too fast?

No, I do--oh!

Someone please
get me a towel!

Ew, dog slobber.

This is
all your fault!

My fault?

Yes. You brought
that dog.

Clifford has been
a big help today.

He slobbered all over me.

Girls, please,
we'’re supposed to be
working as a team,

Not arguing.

Don'’t forget, if things
go well tonight,

You will all be rewarded

With an ice-cream party
after the carnival.

[Slurping]

[Woof]

Why don'’t you kids
finish up here

Then go home
and get ready
for the carnival?

Ok, mr. Rodriguez.

See ya tonight!

Thanks for your help.

See you tonight.

Wow! Yeah!

T-bone: and there'’s
that big balloon

We were afraid of,
clifford.

Cleo: nothing to be
afraid of now, big guy.

That'’s right, cleo.

[Humming]

T-bone:
neat trick, clifford.

Wow!

Ferris wheel,
here I come!

Jetta, would you mind
doing one more little
job tonight?

Of course,
mr. Rodriguez.

Anything you want.

We'’re borrowing
a tractor for the
hayride later tonight,

Could you please meet
the driver at the back gate

And guide him over
to the pumpkin patch area?

Well, can'’t he
find it himself?

Jetta, you'’ve done
a very good job

Of telling others
what to do today.

Now it'’s your turn
to do something.

That'’s teamwork.

But what if he'’s late?

There'’s all these rides
and a ferris wheel.

Please be
a team player, jetta.

Oh, ok.

Where'’s
that silly tractor?

I'’m missing all the fun.

I really want to ride
that ferris wheel.

Where is he?

I know.

I'’ll just go and take
one little tiny ride,

And then
I'’ll come right back.

Ferris wheel,
here I come.

Ok, step right up.

Good luck, honey.

All right!
Yeah!

[Laughing]

That'’s her
th ride tonight.

I want a hayride!

Come on, please, mom.

Can'’t we
go on the ride?

I don'’t believe this.

The tractor was supposed
to be here an hour ago.

What do you think
happened, mr. Rodriguez?

It'’s what didn'’t happen

That I'’m more concerned
about, charley.

Jetta.

Yes, mr. Rodriguez?

Jetta, did you wait
for the tractor
at the back gate

As I asked you to?

Uh, well, yeah.

I--i waited.

And it never showed up?

Well,
I'’m not exactly sure.

I mean
it was taking so long,

And I wanted to ride
the ferris wheel,

And I was gonna go back.

Jetta, you were a member
of this carnival team,

And all these people
were counting on you

To do your part.

Now we have no tractor
to pull the hay wagon.

I know. I'’m sorry.

I guess I'’m not
a very good team player
after all.

Well, there'’s nothing
we can do about it now.

I guess we'’ll just have
to cancel the hayride.

Mr. Rodriguez,
I have an idea.

[Kids laughing and cheering]

Jetta'’s sure doing
a great job, huh, charley?

[Laughing]

Yup, I think
she'’s finally

Got this teamwork
thing figured out.

Congratulations to you all

For making this the best

Birdwell island
fall carnival ever.

Ice-cream sundaes
for everyone!

[Kids cheering]

No, clifford!

You have to eat
over here.

Look at that, clifford.

A really big sundae

For a really big
part of the team.

[Woof]

That'’s clifford...

My big red dog.

Emily: clifford!

It'’s story time!

You want to hear
a speckle story,

Don'’t you?
[Woof woof]

I thought so.

He'’s your favorite.

Today'’s story is speckle

And the rainy day.

One day speckle
went walking in the rain.

He walked past darnell
trying to stay dry.

Speckle invited darnell

To join him
under his umbrella.

Then speckle saw luna,

And he invited her
to join them

Under the umbrella, too.

As they walked by
the brook,

They spied ravi and reba,

But there was no more room
under speckle'’s umbrella.

So speckle invited
everyone to climb in,

And they all
floated downstream

In their umbrella boat,

Happy and laughing
together.

The end.

That was a great story.

Isn'’t reading fun?

[Woof]

Hmm.

Ferry'’s gonna be
late today, pedro.

I don'’t think so,
victor.

It'’s gonna be
right on time.

I hope it'’s on time,
pedro.

I can'’t wait to see
my cousin laura.

And laura'’s
bringing along
her big dog rex.

[Woof woof woof]

Bigger than clifford?

Bigger
than clifford?

Laura: gee, rex,
you get bigger every day.

[Woof woof woof]

Aren'’t these
binoculars great?

Cousin emily'’s
gonna love '’em.

She says your buddy
clifford'’s grown

Since the last time
we saw him.

Remember how tiny
and cute he was?

[Growling]

Come on, rex. Swing me.

Ok, squirt.

Here we go.

Wahoo!

Hey! Cut it out.

[Laughing]

The little guy
always loved water.

I wonder if
he'’s outgrown that.

Oh, my, it'’s clifford.

Look,
here he comes!

Whoa!

Emily was right.

Clifford
really has grown.

[Woof]

Whoa!

Here it comes!
Here it comes!

Well, what do you
know, victor.

Right on time.

Hmm.

Laura! Laura!

Emily!

[Woof woof]

Laura, I'’m so glad
you'’re here.

I brought you
a present, emily.

Wow.

These are great.

We'’re gonna
have so much fun.

I have everything
all planned out.

And this was
for clifford,

But...

I didn'’t know
he'’d changed so much.

Yeah, he got
a lot bigger,

But he'’s still
lots of fun.

Hey, how'’re ya doin'’...

Uh, squirt?

I'’m great, rex.

Clifford,

You haven'’t
changed a bit.

Come on, laura.

Let'’s body surf.

That'’s ok, emily.

I'’m ok here.

Ok.

So, rex, what
do you wanna do first?

Hey, what do you say,
squirt?

Let'’s race to the beach!

No fair. Wait up!

Looks like I can
still b*at ya, squirt!

Oh!

Hey, I won! Finally!

[Panting]
yeah, great race.

Oh!

Want to race again?

I don'’t want
to tire you out,

So let'’s find
something else to do,

Ok?

Sure, rex.

See you later,
aunt caroline!

Come on, laura.

Let'’s go
over to the park

And play some catch.
Then I want to show you

The great climbing tree
in my backyard.

Sure, but...

I just want to look
at these stickers first.

You like
looking at stickers?

Yeah. I collect them.

I didn'’t know that.

I'’ll only be a minute.

It'’s ok.

Take your time.

Our dogs
sure are having fun.

They'’re playing catch.

They used to do that
all the time, remember?

Here you go, squirt.

[Barking]

Good catch, clifford.

Ok, I'’m ready!

Throw me a good one.
I never miss!

Ok. Here goes.

Whoa!

Whoa!

Uh, maybe this isn'’t
such a great game
for us anymore.

Let'’s play
something else.

Great idea, squirt.

Come on up, laura.

You can see the dunes
from here.

No, thanks.

I'’m doing my scrapbook.

Hey, squirt.
Remember when

I used to swing you
around on the rope?

I don'’t think
that'’s gonna work
anymore,

But maybe I can
swing you now.

Hmm. That might be fun.

Why not?

Ok, let '’er rip!

Rex!

Whoo!

Clifford! Stop!

Oh!

Rex!

Clifford!

Are you ok, rex?

Clifford,
you'’re too big

To roughhouse like that
with rex now.

You'’re not puppies
anymore.

You need to find
some new stuff to do
that you both like.

That'’s what
a good host does

When a friend
comes to visit.

[Whimpers]

Maybe I need to be
a better host, too,
clifford.

Hey, laura,
is rex ok?

Yeah.

Actually, I think
he was having fun.

But you'’re not
having much fun,

Are you?

Well, it'’s ok.

Can I look
at your scrapbook?

Really?
You want to?

It'’s just, you know,
a bunch of stickers.

You might be bored.

These are neat!

That'’s my favorite page.

I really like birds.

Hey, wanna go look
at some real birds?

Really? Real birds?

Sure! The island'’s
filled with them,

And I have a camera.

You could
even take pictures

And make
your own bird stickers.

Great!

Mm-hmm.

You find the birds
with the binoculars,

And I'’ll take their
picture with the camera!

My camera'’s upstairs.
Let'’s go!

Ah, listen, squirt--

You'’re not really
a squirt anymore,
are you?

Not really.

I'’m more like
a tidal wave now.

Yeah, kinda.

I guess
we can'’t really play

The same games
we used to, huh?

Nope,

But we could
try something new.

Well, I'’m game
if you are, squir--

I mean, clifford.

Emily: clifford, rex,

We'’re going
to look for birds
out on the dunes.

Wanna come?

[Rex and clifford barking]

Hey, sounds good to me.

Well, what are we
waiting for?

[Woof woof woof]

It sure was fun having
cousin laura and rex visit,

Wasn'’t it?

Laura'’s changed a lot,

But I still
really like her.

I guess I'’ve probably
changed a lot, too.

Of course, no one'’s
changed as much as you.

But I know one thing
that'’ll never change--

I'’ll always love you,
clifford,

My big red dog.

[Growling]

Clifford and I know
that playing is
a lot more fun

When we share
with our friends.

That'’s why clifford'’s
big idea for today

Is sharing.

It'’s mine!

No, it'’s mine!

No, it'’s mine!

Mine!

I say it'’s mine!

Whoa!

What'’s going on,
t-bone?

I found this toy first,

But cleo thinks
it belongs to her.

Now wait! I found it,
and it'’s mine!

Maybe instead of
fighting over that toy,

We can all share mine.

Well, ok.

Great!

Here you go, cleo!

Catch, big guy!

[Woof woof]

This is fun!

Yeah!

Yeah!

When friends
share with friends,

Everyone is happy.

That'’s why clifford'’s
big idea for today
is sharing!
