Review by Booklist Review

PreS-K. This My First I Can Read Book about a popular puppy character comprises one-syllable words, most of which are among those children first learn when beginning to read: run, dog, big, etc. But even without recognizing all the words, children can easily follow the story through the clear, unfussy pictures that spell out each action, including the sweet, upbeat conclusion, which puts Biscuit in the spotlight. The plot, which follows little Biscuit as he tries to do everything his big friend, Sam, does, may even strike a few little ones as a bit familiar, especially if they have older sibs. --Ray Olson Copyright 2003 Booklist

Review by Horn Book Review

Because he's so much smaller, Biscuit the puppy can't always do what his big canine friend Sam can do. However, when it comes to wiggling under a fence to fetch a ball, Biscuit is the only one for the job. While the book offers nothing extraordinary in text or illustration, it's pleasant fare for those who are just beginning to read. From HORN BOOK Spring 2004, (c) Copyright 2010.
