For fans of Clifford and Spot, welcome everybody’s favorite little yellow puppy, Biscuit, in an I Can Read adventure! Woof, woof! It’s a very special day at the library, Biscuit! It's Read to a Pet Day at the library! There are so many fun things to see and do! Biscuit plays with story-time puppets, visits with friends, and listens to recorded books. Before he goes, a librarian helps him find the activity that he loves most of all. This joyful story will help cultivate a love of books and libraries in children who are learning to read. Biscuit Loves the Library, a My First I Can Read book, is carefully crafted using basic language, word repetition, sight words, and sweet illustrations—which means it's perfect for shared reading with emergent readers and children who love the library. What makes the library so much fun for a little puppy? Children’s Book About Dogs: Join Biscuit, the sweet yellow puppy, as he explores a brand new place and makes new friends. - Books About Friendship: It’s Read to a Pet Day, and Biscuit finds a cozy spot to share a story with all the other children and their pets. - Gentle Lessons: Discover why the library is a fun, welcoming place full of wonderful things like story-time puppets and books made just for you. - Learning to Read: Part of the My First I Can Read series, this book uses simple language, word repetition, and familiar sight words to help build confidence in emergent readers. Biscuit’s eighteenth beginning-reader misadventure has the blond puppy accompanying his little-girl owner to Read to a Pet Day at the local library. As with previous entries in the I Can Read series, Biscuit’s misbehavior is of the lightest, least offensive kind, with the canine sniffing audiovisual gear, dragging about hand puppets, and claiming the storytime chair for himself. As always, Capucilli’s sentences, aimed at the earliest readers, keep things smiley (“Oh, Biscuit!”), while Schories’ soft-edged illustrations surround the starring duo with multicultural kids, darling animals, amiable clutter, and lots of white space that doesn’t overwhelm the words. It’s hard to argue with this, or any, serving of Biscuit.
