Clifford's Best Friend: A Story about Emily Elizabethĥ5. Clifford: Where is the Big Red Doggie?ĥ4. Clifford's Peek-And-Seek Animal RiddlesĤ8. Reissued in 2010 under the title: Clifford's Best PalsĤ4. Reissued in 2010 under the title: Clifford is a Star Norman Bridwell, the creator and author of the Clifford the Big Red Dog book series, in 2011. The TV series adaptation gives her a surname, Emily Elizabeth Howard, and changes the background, with her receiving Clifford as a surprise present on her 6th birthday instead of picking him out as a Christmas present. She was named for creator Norman Bridwell's daughter and based on the imaginary adventures of Bridwell's wife. She is the best skater on the island, and is also very good at soccer.
She is frequently portrayed riding on his bare back. A friendly, curious, and helpful eight-year-old girl. She picked out his sketch of a baby girl and a horse-sized bloodhound and casually said, "There might be a story in this," Bridwell remembers. His character was created when an editor at Harper & Row advised Bridwell to write a story to go along with one of his pictures. He has a mother, two brothers, and two sisters. His owner is Emily Elizabeth, to whom he is devoted. He originally wanted to name him "Tiny", but his wife persuaded him otherwise. The character's name is based on the imaginary childhood friend of creator Norman Bridwell's wife. His size, like giants in medieval legends, is inconsistent-he is often shown as being about 25 feet tall from paws to head, but can appear far larger: For example, in one episode of the show, he removes the top of a lighthouse and swims out with it to guide a ferry through the fog to the dock.
He sometimes gets into trouble because of his size or is tempted into trouble by his friends and those he meets. Clifford is shy, gentle, friendly, loyal, lovable, clumsy, well-meaning and helpful.
