From School Library Journal

PreSchool-Grade 1-Biscuit and his owner are invited to a friend's house to celebrate Hanukkah. As the children spin the dreidel, listen to stories, and roll beeswax candles, the puppy gets into all kinds of mischief while the adult dog of the household calmly looks on. A turn of a quarter-page flap reveals the pup's exploits. Pleasant, child-oriented pictures extend the easy-to-read text. Biscuit is a familiar character with many a title under his collar, but even the flip-the-page feature can't hide the fact that this is a slight holiday offering.-I. A.

This review is from: Happy Hanukkah, Biscuit! (Paperback)

Biscuit goes to visit Sam for a Hanukkah party on the eighth night of the holiday. As the girls, boy, and Sam (a dog) busy themselves on successive pages with latkes, dreidels, fried jelly donuts, and making candles, Biscuit find mischief on very ingenious flip up pages. Biscuit plays with the gelt, the donuts, the string for the candle wicks, the apples for the applesauce. What fun. But then comes time for a gift for Sam...
