Skippyjon Jones’ newest adventure is a great book for students. Skippyjon Jones does not like fairy tales. So while his sisters listen to the tale of Snow White, Skippy bounces on his big-boy bed and then heads off for an adventure in his closet. Once inside, he finds himself in a magical snowy forest of make-believe. I love the mixture of English and Spanish. You are easily able to pick up on the meaning of the words if you don’t know Spanish. It is a great book for students who speak both Spanish and English. They love to help with the Spanish. It is a funny book that will keep the kids laughing as Skippyjon Jones learns fairy tales might not be so bad.
