Not good for reading to child before bedtime. Not enough words, story, substance. We were bored with it after one reading. My 2yr son isn't old enough to read yet, but when he is, I am guessing he will read it once and then be bored with it again.

"Bizcocho encuentra un amigo: Biscuit Finds a Friend" is a Spanish language book in the popular Biscuit series of books. In this adventure, Biscuit meets a new friend, a duck. He helps to reunite the duck with his family. They have a fun day playing, quacking, and woofing at each other.
Cayden: "This one is in Spanish! Guau must mean `Woof" because that is what Biscuit says on every page in the other books. "
Max: "Guau!"
Cayden: "Max is barking in Spanish!"
Cayden: "His new friend is a duck."
Max: "Quack! Quack!"
Cayden: "That duck sure has a lot of brothers and sisters!"
Max: "Dog swim!"
Cayden: "Look! Biscuit shakes off after he gets wet just like our dog! And he rolls around on the ground too!"
Cayden: "I wonder if they will play together again?"
Cayden: "I liked reading a Biscuit book in Spanish, we never had one of those before. I didn't know some of the words but some of them I did. Biscuit's name is Bizcocho in Spanish!"
Parent's comments:
"Bizcocho encuentra un amigo: Biscuit Finds a Friend" by Alyssa Satin Capucilli is part of the "My First I Can Read" series of books which would be excellent for beginning readers in Spanish-speaking families. However, in an English-speaking household the book is also very helpful in teaching children Spanish. There is a lot of repetition in the book and my children both picked up a couple of new words just after the very first reading. It helped that the character of Biscuit was already familiar to them. For instance, they knew that Biscuit always says "Woof! Woof!" so they were easily able to translate "Guau! Guau!" We recommend this book to beginning Spanish readers and to those wanting to learn Spanish as a second language.

These books are very short, very repetitive, very predictable, very simple.
Great early readers.
They could also be great for toddlers and babies, who use that repetition to learn to speak, but they're written so simply that you'll be bored to tears after reading the book more than three times. And you can read these books several times in one sitting, they're that short.
Give them to your kid when they start reading and insist that THEY read the books - not you. Do not fall into the trap of reading them. Ever. If your kid is like the ones I know, they'll fall in love and you'll be trapped.

I needed to add a filler or two to a recent order with Amazon so I picked out two Biscuit stories for my 20 month old son who loves books. He took to "Biscuit Finds a Friend" right away and is now a Biscuit fan. The story is very simple and easy for my son to follow along. Be prepared to say "woof, woof" over and over, but it's worth it!

kids love listening to this. They learn new words on their own by listening to the tape. If they are having trouble reading, this helps them look and listen to the book. They can follow along.
