A mysterious backpack. A sneezing puppy. One school day filled with hilarious trouble
Ben and Maya are shocked when a tiny fluffy puppy tumbles out of Ms. Lina's backpack-wearing a yellow sock as a sweater
They name him Biscuit, but keeping a playful puppy hidden at school is not easy. Biscuit races through the library, steals sandwiches, leaves paw prints across the assembly stage, and develops a very noisy dislike of Principal Pemberton's squeaky shoes.
As Ben and Maya search for Biscuit's owner, they discover that he may have an important job waiting for him: becoming a reading companion for children who need a little extra confidence.
But first, Biscuit must learn to sit quietly, ignore tempting snacks, and stop causing chaos wherever he goes. Can this mischievous puppy prove that he has what it takes to become a real Reading Buddy?
