Linterna. ¡Vale!
Tienda de campaña. ¡Sí!
Mantas. ¡Sí!
¡Bizcocho está listo para ir a acampar! Cuando uno duerme bajo las estrellas, se oyen y se ven muchas cosas nuevas, desde luminosas luciérnagas hasta ranas cantarinas. Y eso que se ve en el cielo, ¿serán nubarrones? ¿Y ahora qué hará Bizcocho para poder ir a acampar?
Alyssa Satin Capucilli y Pat Schories celebran la magia de acampar al aire libre —o donde quiera que uno encuentre un rincón acogedor— con Bizcocho, nuestro cachorro juguetón favorito.
Alyssa Satin Capucilli was born in Brooklyn, New York, in 1957. She graduated from Sarah Lawrence College, and pursued her interest in dance, becoming a professional dancer and dance instructor. Though Capucilli had written stories, poems, and even puppet shows as a child, she didn't consider a career as a writer until after her own two children were born. To this day she sees herself as both a dancer and a writer, and the two professions complement each other nicely: dancing is, in her words, “telling stories in another way,” and readers of her children's books can attest to the rhythm of her language. Since 1994, she has written more than 15 books for children, and her work has been translated into French, Hebrew, Afrikaans, Greek, and Bulgarian.
Capucilli lives in Hastings-on-Hudson, New York, with her husband and children. They have a chocolate Labrador retriever named Huckleberry, who likes to watch the author at work.
Their little laundry line tent in the backyard is so precious. One more reason to hurry up and fix my clothesline, Tot could go camping right in view of my bedroom window.
Damn.. that bear attack scene was the most brutal, unfair, and downright evil thing I’ve ever read in a book. Horrible for all involved, but this is why we read, to learn to be brave.
My Review: This was a great summer time read for Munchkin. We have been trying to camp out for a month but we can't seem to string two storm free days together on a weekend, so this story was definitely relatable for him. It was also great for growing his confidence with reading. It was an easy pre-level reader so contained simple sentences, sight words and plenty of repetition. The story is of course a cute and fun adventure with Biscuit the dog.
Biscuit is beloved in my household & so we were excited to have found this prior to an upcoming camping trip. Though (only if you are aware) you can infer through illustrations, I do wish the author would have clearly established that they are backyard camping so that my toddlers don’t think that if there is a hiccup we can just go inside a house, but otherwise, the story was fine. I would check this out again.
Biscuit and his owner goes camping in the backyard but the rain chases them indoors because their tent is made of blankets.
What I liked about Biscuit is how much Biscuit and his owner discovers before the rain chases them inside. Pat Schories illustrations did an excellent job in helping to tell the story.
Biscuit is adorable as always. Here he is camping in the backyard with his friend, the little girl. Biscuit finds lots of things before the camping trip is threatened by thunder. The two friends find a way to make it fun anyways.
Nice beginning reader book with lots of repetitive words. The little girl and Biscuit make a tent outside and explore all the night sounds along with thunder so they have to go in.
Biscuit goes camping is about Biscuit the dog, and his adventures while camping with the little girl. Biscuit continues to wake the little girl to tell her about his findings, like a frog and a firefly. However, when they hear thunder, they have to go inside from their backyard because of the rain. Reason for recommendation: This book talks about the animals that you can see while camping in your backyard. Winner of the Junior Library Guild Selection, the Bank Street College of Education’s “Best Children’s Books of the Year,” and CCBC Choices.

BISCUIT GOES CAMPING is at the beginning First Grade Reading Level.
It's a book I think of as Biscuit-light. By which I mean that not much goes on. Biscuit and girl set up in the backyard to camp. They see a frog and lightning bug and then have to rush inside because rain and lightning threaten.
The artwork by Pat Schories is sweet. Alyssa Capucilli manages to tell the tale with 151 words that are presented in a suitably large font. Biscuit fans will no doubt like to practice their reading with this book but there's not remarkable about. Just a good solid practice reader. Here is some sample text from two pages:
Oh no! Here comes the rain! How can we go camping now?
Biscuit, the puppy is excited about camping until he encounters frogs, fireflies, and a thunderstorm. Biscuit runs back into the house and finds the perfect camping space in his own bed. http://julianaleewriter.com/the-cybil...
A charming read for emerging readers told in simple words but the there is nothing lacking in the story with expressive illustrations. Fans of Biscuit and all those adventures will look forward to yet another new experience for this favorite pup.
This was the series that got my baby interested in reading so it will always be special. this one was cute because at the end you find out that biscuit and the little girl were never very far from home it gave it a neat quality that wasn't just "oh the family went camping the end"
