This is a wildly wonderful book about a hyperactive kitten,Skippyjon Jones, whose head and ears are too big for his body, andwhose imagination is too intense for his mama. According to her, heneeds to do some serious thinking about what it means to be aSiamese cat instead of a bird (Skippyjon always wakes up and eatsworms with his feathered friends). She sends him to his room, wherehe imagines he is a Chihuahua ("My name is Skippito Friskito./Ifear not a single bandito"). Chock-full of rhyming chants andSpanish expressions, the feline's adventure as a doggy Zorro endsin chaos. His frazzled mother gives him a hug anyway and says, "Saygood night, Skippyjon Jones." "Buenas noches, mis amigos," says thekitten, as he bounces on his bed all ready for another adventure.The buoyant and colorful cartoon illustrations match the exuberanttext perfectly. Spanish-speaking children will be especiallydelighted by the words and humor; others may be a little bewilderedby all of the foreign phrases and will need some explanation, butthe story definitely has the potential of a fun read-aloud.
