Skippyjon Jones by Judith Byron Schachner (2007, Reinforced Hardcover)

This is what I describe as a package full of surprises. The book itself is simply wonderful. Full of imagination and as funny as can be. Skippyjon Jones is a housecat who aspires to be much more and with his vivid imagination gets into all sorts of adventures. The way the book is written makes the reader speak in different spanish accents while telling the story which makes everything so much more fun and will have your kids begging you to read it again and again just to hear the silly voices you use. His adventures while they can be exciting never get scary or too dramatic for even the youngest kids. This particular version of the book even comes with a stuffed animal version of the main character with great attentiuon paid to every little detail including the mask he wears in the story. This book will be an instant favorite with kids of any age.
