Skippyjon Jones and the Big Bones by Judy Schachner: (Pre-K through 4th)
Holy guacamole! Skippyjon is crazy-loco for dinosaurs! The kitty boy enters (via his closet) the land of dinosaurs in search of the fabled skipposaurus. Instead he runs into his old amigos, the Chimichango gang. When a T-Mex threatens the pack, it's El Skippito, the great sword fighter, to the rescue. With yips and yowls, he drives the big baddie away, so all the dino-dudes can rattle their bones another day.
The Batboy by Mike Lupica (3rd-4th)
Brian Dudley has every baseball kid's summer dream job: he is batboy for his hometown's major league team, the Detroit Tigers. Even more exciting, his hero, Hank Bishop, is returning to the sport after a 50-game suspension to play for the Tigers. This could be the year Bishop hits his 500th homerun---the elusive goal for all hitters that almost guarantees a place in the Baseball Hall of Fame--and Brian will be on the field to see it. But Bishop seems to dislike Brian from the very start.
