This is new addition to the Biscuit series in the "My First I Can Read" format continues to be a great introduction for children learning to read. Its bold font, short sentences, and frequent repetition will motivate children to read, especially with the compelling story of a beloved pet on a family trip. - School Library JournalCapucilli's most recent book in the My First I Can Read series about Biscuit features a simple plot: the adorable puppy takes a ride on the ferry with his little girl and her human family. They look forward to an enjoyable outing together, and Biscuit explores the boat and befriends a seagull as they make their way across the water. Along the way, they spot dolphins, ships, and a lighthouse. They even meet the ferry's captain, after Biscuit saves her hat from going overboard. Like the story's simple words, straightforward sentences, and concise paragraphs, the book's jaunty pictures will appeal to many young children who are learning to read. Just as enticing are the illustrations of the puppy and his friend in Berlin's appealing pictures, which were created in the style of the series' original illustrator. Preschoolers will also enjoy listening to the book when it's read aloud and chiming in when they hear Biscuit's favorite phrase: "Woof! woof! woof!" - Booklist Online
