    Blue Willow Bookshop presents  Judy Schachner.   Spice up your picture book collection when you come see picture book author and illustrator Judy Schachner of the Skippyjon Jones series. She'll be in town to discuss and sign her newest book, Skippyjon Jones Lost in Spice.

    The New York Times bestselling kitty boy blasts off into another hilarious adventure. Buckle up, amigos— everyone’s favorite kitty boy is about to lift off. You’ll want to be there when the brave Skippito gets lost in spice!

    That’s right, spice. Skippy knows— from his big ears to his toes—that the planet Mars is red because it’s covered in spicy red pepper. To prove it, he’s off on a space jaunt replete with craters, crazies, and creatures from Mars. His new adventure is packed with witty wordplay, Spanish phrases, and Judy Schachner’s trademark hilarity. This rollicking romp is simply out of this world.

    Judy Schachner, illustrator and writer of children's books since 1992, is the recipient of many awards. Skippyjon Jones won the first E. B. White Read Aloud Book Award, which is given by the Association of Booksellers for Children for picture books and novels. Her books have also won state children's choice awards in Indiana, Nebraska, Pennsylvania, and Washington. She lives in Swarthmore, Pennsylvania with her Siamese cat, Skippy, who served as inspiration for the Skippyjon Jones character.
