My kids love reading books! They love to flip through pages and look at the pictures and they love being read to, which means we read a lot of books and we read a lot of them over, and over and over again. I always love to find new titles and new children's books authors and I'm sharing some of my favorites with you incase your kids are like mine and and you're gifting some books this year!

Clifford the Big Red Dog is (finally) hitting theaters and Paramount+ on November 10th and the question on everyone's mind is, can a live action movie do the adorable books and subsequent cartoon series(s) justice?  Audiences are, rightfully so, harsh on films that take a lovable cartoon and turn it into a live action film and while some have been huge hits, others have been real head scratchers. So where does Clifford the Big Red Dog fall? Is this PG rated film OK for younger audiences to view? I'm sharing my thoughts on these questions and more in my no-spoilers review.
