School Library Journal Review
Gr 1-3-Hola! The cat with identity issues meets a body double-green, one-eyed, but otherwise not so different-on Mars, which is rightly dubbed the Red Planet because it's covered in chili powder! Tumultuous pictures capture the pace and humor of this latest episode in the exploits of the would-be Chihuahua perfectly. (c) Copyright 2011.

Publisher's Weekly Review
Skippyjon Jones, the Siamese kitten who thinks he's a Chihuahua, is also "nuts about Mars," which he decides to visit via a trip to his closet. Passing through the constellations, the space-suited (really, it's a snowsuit) feline encounters Los Chimichangos, who appear in a fiery comet, as well as his green Martian double once he reaches the red planet, which is covered in chili powder. Skippyjon's ludicrous adventures and energetic personality will keep fans happy that his imagination remains unchecked. A recording of the story read by the author is also included. Ages 3-5. (Sept.)
