Horn Book Review
Biscuit's little girl points to all the wonderful things in her garden. The puppy, however, is more interested in the birds. When he jumps on and spills the bag of birdseed, the garden is suddenly filled with far more than just pretty flowers. The pleasant pictures of the lovable pup carry the simple, amusing story.

Booklist Review
This latest entry in the I Can Read! series about floppy-haired Biscuit sees the pooch and a girl in a blooming garden, where they look at flowers, find a worm, and feed the birds. For each exciting thing the girl points out in the garden, Biscuit answers with a Woof! Woof! Once birds are introduced, there's a cacophony of tweets to add to the woofs. Emergent readers will have fun with these sound words, which are reinforced through repetition, and with the other basic one- and two-syllable words throughout (there's also a three-syllable challenge: butterfly). The lively illustrations portray a curious canine who, of course, gets himself into some harmless mischief. Another fun outing with Capucilli's lovable doggy.--Kelley, Ann Copyright 2010 Booklist
