Sam is a big dog and Biscuit's newest friend. Biscuit wants to do everything that Sam does -- like running fast and fetching sticks. But it sure is hard for a puppy like Biscuit to keep up with such a big dog.
In this encouraging story of friendship, Biscuit shows that small puppies can do big things!
Alyssa Satin Capucilli is the author of the popular books about the little yellow puppy named Biscuit as well as the My First I Can Read Book Pedro's Burro, illustrated by Pau Estrada. She lives in Hastings-on-Hudson, New York.

Interesting and confidence-building early reader,
This review is from: Biscuit's Big Friend (My First I Can Read) (Paperback)
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. The story here explores Biscuit's friendship with a bigger dog, Sam. The vocabulary is simple with familiar sight words that will motivate a young child who is just beginning to read. It helps to 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.

This review is from: Biscuit's Big Friend (My First I Can Read) (Paperback)
We love Biscuit at our house. My 6-year-old daughter loves to read Biscuit books because the stories are fun and Biscuit is adorable! My 7-year-old son will say this is a "little kid" book, but secretly peeks over his sister's shoulder as she reads.

Good easy reader,

This review is from: Biscuit's Big Friend (My First I Can Read) (Hardcover)
This is a nice book for a beginning reader. The story and illustrations are simple. The author, Alyssa Satin Capucilli, obviously put some thought into choosing the words for a beginning reader. There are combinations of easy sounding words like "Sam can carry a big stick" which a reader can pick out the "a" in 'Sam can' and then sound out 'big' and 'stick' while working on the word 'carry.'
The book presents some minor challenges to keep a new reader interested as well as easy challenges to keep the reader's confidence up!
