Oh, no. . . .He's actually El Skippito, a great sword-fighter ready to battle banditos the world over!

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.  * "Both feline hero and story are full of beans (more Mexican-jumping than pinto) but ay caramba, mucho fun."— Kirkus Reviews , starred review"Buoyant and colorful cartoon illustrations match the exuberant text perfectly."— School Library Journal
