Books for Kids: Meet Skippyjon Jones

Skippyjon Jones
Skippyjon Jones by Judith Schachner, is a great child's book for summer reading. This book can be a wonderful read-aloud picture book, or an easy reader for ages 4 through 8.

This imaginative children's book takes us into the world of Skippyjon Jones, a Siamese kitten who can't resign himself to being a kitten. Sent to his room by his mother for imagining that he is a bird (and eating worms each morning for breakfast), Skippyjon takes on the personality of a fearless Chihuahua named Skippito. The short story is filled with rhymes and Spanish expressions, and is a great way for children to learn a bit of Spanish while they enjoy the adventures of Skippyjon.
