Skippyjon Jones Class Action By: Judy Schachner
Here is a brand new book with that lovable little character Skippyjon Jones. Skippyjon Jones Class Action is full of adventure and rhyming. Skippyjon is a personified Siamese cat who wants to go to school, and would prefer to be a Chihuahua, but his mom says, “School is for the dogs and dogs are unruly and drooly, their barks are ferocious and their dog breath smells atrocious!” This Skippyjon Jones book also includes Spanish words. It could be used in teaching in a classroom including ELL students. The rhyming is perfect for early readers. Skippyjon’s adventure is excellent for teaching cause and effect and helping children to use their imaginations in thinking about books.

This sounds like an incredible book. With the Spanish vocabulary and such a colorful character, i'm sure both student and teacher would enjoy this story. Is this book available online as a read aloud or read along? I think that would greatly aid struggling readers as well as help with the proper pronunciation of the Spanish words. Thanks for the book suggestion.
