Holy guacamole! Meet the #1 New York Times bestselling Skippyjon Jones!

 

Skippyjon Jones is no ordinary kitten. Oh, no. . . .He’s actually El Skippito, a great sword-fighter ready to battle banditos the world over! With a little imagination and a whole lot of fun, this frisky cat dons a mask and cape and takes on a bad bumble-beeto to save the day. And along the way, he’ll be sure to steal young reader’s hearts, yes indeed-o!

 

My name is Skippito Friskito.

I fear not a single bandito.

My manners are mellow,

I’m sweet like the Jell-O,

I get the job done, yes indeed-o.
