In the Biscuit book series by Alyssa Satin Capucilli, a curious little puppy and his little girl owner share many adventures, from going to bed to taking a bath to trick-or-treating! These books are great for kids just learning to read, and there are plenty of adventures to last for a while! They also make great read-aloud bedtime stories for smaller children. Pat Schories illustrates the books with wonderful, cute drawings. A great first-series for first readers! Many books have won awards as well, including the American Bookseller’s Association Pick of the Lists and the Winner of the 2002 Oppenheim Toy Portfolio Gold Award – Best Book Award Named as a Washington Irving Children’s Choice Honor Book for 2002.
