Skippyjon Jones Snow What

This is an exceptionally good book in a WONDERFUL series. I own the whole series because my family and I enjoy these books so much even though they’re made for children. We would all highly recommend them. Something to be aware of is there is Spanish phrases throughout this book, and the other books in the series. I have started a collection of children’s books to have if I would have my own kids someday, books I like, or books I remember reading as a kid.

As usual, the writers of the Skippyjon Jones books didn't disappoint. I have been buying Skippyjon books since the first book when my kids were itty bitty. My youngest is 12 yrs old and she still loves when I read them to her. My 17yr old (middle child) likes them too, I catch him smiling when I do voices as I read. He remembers from when I read tuem to him as a little boy. Now I read them to my grandloves when they visit.

My grandkids really enjoy the Skippyjon Jones books. I think we have almost all of them.

Skippy has been and will always be some of my greatest memories that I shared with my daughter. Ive read almost all of them to my daughter over the years and then she started to grow up a little and started reading Harry Potter and hunger games books but at age twelve when she was away from me for a while, not feeling well she asked me to read her a story and she requested Skippy John Jones and because of kindle I was able to instantly purchase a new Skippy book and relive those memories and now she's fast asleep. I hope Skippy John Jones never runs out of adventurers for us to share with those who we LOVE!Love you Hazel Daddy will be there soon PROMISE!

I bought this book because I'm completely in love with all things Skippyjon, and we already had most of the other books. The pictures are fabulous, as usual, and the spunky little kitten/pup is back for another wild adventure. While I must admit it probably isn't the best of the books, it is still wildly funny and cute to read. My kids love it, and the songs and clapping sections make it fun and interactive for them. The best part is the CD of Judy Schachner reading the text aloud so you can hear how the author intended for it to be read. I'd recommend this for anyone who's a Skippyjon fan, but if it's going to be your first visit with the crazy chihuahua-cat, I'd suggest getting one of the earlier ones as well so you have some background info before jumping right into this one. Check out Skippyjon Jones in the Dog House, Lost in Spice, or Cirque de Ole, which in my opinion are some of the best ones. These books also teach some simple Spanish which your kids (and you!) can figure out using the context clues in the text or the pictures - important skills for good readers to practice! Alliteration abounds and Mama Junebug always talks in rhyme, so there are many educational benefits to this book, too. This book loosely tells the story of Snow What (who is actually Snow White), so there is also the element of the slanted fairy tale, as well. Enjoy!

Have your kiddos fell in love with Skippyjon Jones yet? If not, what are you waiting for? Dive in with this awesome book! We use these are bedtime stories in my house. You know how they say you should read to your child every night? These books are perfect for that. They keep you, as a parent, entertained and smiling and kids love their rhythmic predictability with clapping along. Super fun! This one is no exception. Skippy is always a fun read. The puns are awesome! I bought this one for my kiddos for Christmas. I also got a Pete the Cat book as well. I think it might have been the gift that they loved the most because they know we will read it together many times and can equate the gift with the sense of security and bonding they get from the time we spent together. We love reading and we love Skippyjon Jones!Here is a link to the Pete the Cat one in case you were interested in that as well...http://www.amazon.com/Pete-Saves-Christmas-James-Dean/dp/0062110624/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1457642478&sr=8-1&keywords=pete+the+cat+christmas+book

I and all my grandchildren(from the youngest to the teenagers) love this book and all the rest of Judy's Skippyjon Jones Books. When the first one came out, I kept thinking that little kitty looked so familiar, then I remembered I had The Grannyman by Judy (another beloved book in our family written long before Skippy should you have or get it you will see on the dedication page that one of her cats is named Skippy)! I introduced "Skippy" to my kids kindergarten teacher when she had them and she too is "hooked"! I bought 2 of "Snow What" knowing that she would want it! She never reads it to her class, just puts in the CD and shows the pictures. That's the other gift that Judy gives us with her books. Having worked in a bookstore years ago, I discovered that many authors who "read" their own books were not very good at it, but listening to Judy read Skippy is just pure delight and joy!! Did I mention that even the teens join in with her when she sings and claps!!! Can't wait for Skippy's next closet adventure!

This was a gift for my 4 year old grandson. I have read several others in the series to him and he loved this one as much as the others. We love SkippyJon’s wonderful imagination and the inclusion of several Spanish words to introduce him to the language. The illustrations are beautiful and the text to fun to read.

It is a gift for my granddaughter.....she loves new books. A colleague of mind mentioned the Skippyjon Jones books. I am looking forward to sharing this book with my lilrasp.

Gave to my granddaughter yesterday and read it to her at bedtime. We had a few good chuckles but mostly at my pronunciations. I advised her to listen to the CD next time and I'll have to as well so I know what accent I need to use. Its very cute!
