K-3My First I Can Read Book series.
Illustrated by
Pat Schories.
While his owner tries to teach him to fetch a ball, Biscuit the dog chews his bone or chases the cat--that is, until the ball lands in a mud puddle. Although the ending is predictable, the simple language ("Don't roll over now. Get the ball, Biscuit.") and playful watercolor illustrations make this an appealing choice for beginning readers.
