Local author Judy Schachner has written eight books for children about Skippyjon Jones, a cute Siamese cat with enormous ears who thinks he’s secretly a chihuahua. Skippy has adventures with his imaginary friends, Los Chimichangos — in space, snow, and even ancient Egypt. Schachner has created audiobook versions of all her books; they’re narrated by her, and now available on Soundcloud

If you would like to read along with Schachner, the entire catalog of Skippyjon Jones books is available at Swarthmore Public Library for contactless pickup. Library materials can be requested online

The Swarthmore Public Library is also providing free access to educational materials and online databases, including homework help, online tutors, and language and writing labs.
