These books are an all time favorite in our house! They are great for an ELL making the transition from Spanish to English. Keep in mind that these books would be most appropriate for an ELL student who has a more developed English word recognition/vocabulary. I can see an ELL having an opportunity ...
I absolutely LOVE Skippyjon Jones! Probably because I am the proud dog mom of three beautiful Chihuahuas.In Judy Schachner's debut, we meet Skippyjon Jones, a Siamese cat who thinks he is a Chihuahua.

Well, I liked it better than the racist Skippyjohn books. In fact, I like the art of the cats quite a bit, but I wasn't in love with the writing.

It was ok, certainly, and it was cute as can be (especially the ending), but the kids never got that Bobble-ito was a bobble-head toy. They couldn't figure out what Skippito was doing battle ag...
I *loved* this book! I've had four cats in my life, and this book brought all of them back for me, especially my most beloved. Honestly, this book was so moving and so beautifully written, it almost brought me to tears!The kids liked the story, but they'd have not given it five stars. This book w...
