Skippyjon Jones

Skippyjon Jones
by: Judy Schachner

Ay Carrumba!  It's El Skipptio the great sword fighter!  Do you like mice and beans?  The day some friends and I sat around the dinner table tossing out Skippyjon Jones quotes instead of discussing wine vintages we knew we were squarely in the throes of parenthood.

This book is overflowing with imagination, wild characters, and song and dance.  Beware, you too must be able to overflow with all of these things to appreciate Schachner's books.  To read these books aloud you must be able to 1) sing 2) clap 3) pull off a gringo Spanish accent.  If you can do these things I promise your child will be delighted.  We have to limit the SJJ readings here, one book a night, no more, it's just too much!
