Biscuit Feeds the Pets
by Alyssa Satin Capucilli; illustrated by Pat Schories
We
love Biscuit books! In this one, puppy Biscuit works hard to make sure
each pet gets the right food, but then things go awry at playtime.
Finding a good series is a GREAT way to get kids reading, and few series capture the earliest readers quite like the Biscuit series. Boys and girls alike love this cute little puppy, and they absolutely beam with delight when they can read these popular books all on their own. The majority of Biscuit books range from Level E-G / DRA 8-12. This one is a Level E / 8, and absolutely perfect for readers at this level!
In Biscuit Feeds the Pets, Biscuit helps feed the animals -- from guinea pigs and fish to kittens and puppies--but the animals want to play too, so what happens when playtime gets in the way of mealtime? Biscuit will have to find a new way to make sure everyone gets what they need!
