My 5-year-old daughter loves the Biscuit series of books and though we got the series last year, she still takes them off the shelf and reads them by herself and even to me, without being asked! Now, that's a winning series to me as through these two years since I began to teach her reading skills, we've gone through many different readers by various publishers (many of which I've reviewed in terms of how helpful/effective they've been) and only certain series have appealed to her. Being a visual learner, colorful and interesting illustrations are important, but at the same time they should not detract from the reading itself.

The Biscuit series of books has Biscuit the Dog go on simple yet fun adventures. Here, Biscuit participates in a competition but gets distracted by the other animals at the show with hilarious results. The series is perfect for children beginning to read as familiar sight words are used which build confidence in reading whilst engaging a young reader's interest through the colorful illustrations and charming story. This is a wonderful and appealing series for early readers.

A Kid's Review

This review is from: Biscuit Wins a Prize (My First I Can Read) (Paperback)

I really enjoyed this book. This book is about a puppy named biscuit who goes to a pet show so he has to behave the best although he doesn't! He gets very exited of seing his friends that he starts acting crazy. And when he sees the judge he runs to see more of his friends, but finally the owner of Biscuit finds him and the jugde gives him the best prize.
