Charley: Jetta, Emily is already giving her mom's something great.
Jetta: Mom's love to wear matching clothes with their daughter's. You know mother-daughter outfits like I wear with my mom.

At the clothing store, Clifford is stays without Cleo & T-Bone) This is the best place to shop on Birdwell Island, Emily Elizabeth, c'mon!

Jetta: Fine! We'll just have to find something else for her, then.
Clifford: Ahhh!!
(Emily Elizabeth & Jetta can ride with Clifford)
Jetta: There are lots of things that mother's love besides matching outfits, Emily Elizabeth. They really love stuff like bubble bath & perfume.
Emily Elizabeth (back to normal clothes): That sounds kind of expensive.
Jetta: Don't worry, you and I can make her some amazing perfume.
Emily Elizabeth: That sound like fun. Do you know how to make perfume, Jetta. 
Jetta: Sure.
Charley: Hey, Emily Elizabeth! Jetta! Did you get a new present for your mom, Emily Elizabeth?
Emily Elizabeth: Jetta and I are going to make her some perfume. Want to help? 
Charley: Sure. How do we do it?
Jetta: (We are jumping on Clifford) Well, the first thing we have to do is find a bunch of stuff that smells nice.
Emily Elizabeth: We can do that.
Jetta: Then we mix them up together and put them in a bottle. 
Charley: Well, come on then, let's go find some good smelling stuff. 
Emily Elizabeth (In Emily Elizabeth's yard, she smelled like flowers in the garden down by the picnic basket): Mmmh.
Charley (At the forest park, Charley smelled like pine): I love the smell of pine trees. (Charley picked the pine pieces)
Jetta (At Jetta's house in the kitchen to get the ingredients): So many things smell good in here. Oranges and cinnamon and fresh bread, oh... and maple syrup and cookies and chocolate sauce. 
Clifford (Clifford digs around the grass in Emily Elizabeth's yard. Clifford smelled the bone): Ahh!!! (Clifford is putting bone in his mouth)
(At Jetta's house, we can stir around the perfume in the pot. Clifford is sits down in Jetta's yard)
Emily Elizabeth: How long do we stir it, Jetta?
Jetta: Just until it smells good.
Charley: Well then, let's smell it and see if it's ready. (The kids smelled it, but it smelled really bad was moldy bathing suit)
Emily Elizabeth (Emily smelled like moldy bathing suit): Whoa!
Charley (He pinched his nose with smelled like moldy bathing suit): P.U.!
Jetta (She pinched her nose with smelled like moldy bathing suit): Err! That's awful!
Emily Elizabeth: Maybe, it needs more flowers. (Into moldy bathing suit perfume ingredients as oranges, cinnamon, bread, maple syrup, box of chocolate chip cookies and chocolate sauce)
Charley (He still pinched his nose with smelled like moldy bathing suit perfume): I don't think that's going to help.
Clifford (He smelled and it's great. He gasped into smelling like moldy bathing suit, that pinched his nose): Ohhhh!!!
Jetta: I'm sorry, Emily Elizabeth, I don't know what went wrong!
Emily Elizabeth: That's Okay, I think I'm just going to get my poem. 
Jetta: Now, don't worry, I know lots of things that mother's really like. I'll think of something! 
Emily Elizabeth: But I really think, she's going to love my poem, Jetta. 
Charley: I do, too, Emily. She always loves what you give her. 
Emily Elizabeth: Yeah! Last year, I made her a shell necklace, remember.
Jetta: Of course, jewelry! Every mom loves to get jewelry!
Emily Elizabeth: Actually, she said her favorite part wasn't the necklace. It was looking for seashells with me. 
Jetta: Uh-huh, that's nice. But I'm not talking about making her another necklace, Emily Elizabeth. 
Clifford: Mmm?
Jetta: We're going to make your mom a really big piece of jewelry! Mom's love things that are big!
Clifford: Woof!
Emily Elizabeth: Well, OK! Let's get started!
Jetta: You guys, go down to the beach and get me more seashells and I'll start working on the really big piece of jewelry! (At Jetta's house) Oh, my gosh! It's absolutely amazing! Isn't just perfect, Emily Elizabeth! (With a seashell tiara for Caroline)
Emily Elizabeth: Well, it sure is big. 
Charley: What is it?
Jetta: It's a tiara! 
Charley: A what?
Jetta [She wears a seashell tiara]: A tiara! It's a crown that queens and princesses' wear. Every mother wants to be a queen.
Emily Elizabeth: Really special, Jetta.
Jetta: I know, and it fits me perfectly.
Emily Elizabeth: But, Jetta, I don't think my mom wants to be a queen. 
Jetta: She doesn't
Emily Elizabeth: Nope. I think she's just likes being my mom and I think she's the best, just the way she is!
Charley: Sounds good, Emily Elizabeth!
Emily Elizabeth: Thanks for everything, Jetta! But I've got to get home and see my mom! (Emily Elizabeth touch Jetta’s arm She is running back home)
Jetta: You could be right, Emily Elizabeth! Maybe your poem is the best gift! So, since you've decided to give her the poem. She takes the seashell tiara off, Can I keep the tiara? 
Emily Elizabeth (She climbed into Clifford for the ride home): Sure, it fits you perfectly. Goodbye, Jetta! Bye, Charley! Thanks for everything!
Charley (We waved goodbye): Bye, Emily Elizabeth! Happy Birthday to your mom! 
Jetta (holds the tiara): And thanks for the tiara!

(She will put a raincoat on when it's raining) You help me with my schoolwork. (She helped Emily Elizabeth to do homework) You help me laugh and play. (We can skate together) I know that I can count on you. Every single day. (She put Emily Elizabeth to sleep) So here's a poem I've written. It's my gift to you this time. Happy Birthday to you, mom.
