Bookroo's summary

Skippyjon Jones, a mischievous kitten, escapes his time-out by imagining himself as El Skippito, a hero in a world where his Chihuahua friends are threatened by the menacing Bobble-ito. Can he save their doghouse and become a true amigo? Join Skippyjon on a whimsical adventure filled with courage and creativity, where the power of imagination knows no bounds.

From the publisher

For another loco adventure. In his room for a time-out, Skippyjon Jones lets his imagination take him to a shack where his Chihuahua friends are yipping and yapping and hiding out from the bad Bobble-ito, who has taken over their doghouse. How El Skippito chills the Chihuahuas and banishes the Bobble-ito will make more amigos for this endearing and irresistible rascal, who made his first appearance in the favorite Skippyjon Jones.
