Chester Raccoon's good friend Skiddel Squirrel has had an accident and will not be returning - ever. Chester is upset that he won't get to play with his friend anymore. Mrs. Raccoon suggests that Chester and his friends create some memories of Skiddel, so that they will have good memories when they miss him. Chester, his brother Ronny, and their friends decide to gather at the pond, where they combine their memories and create a touching celebration of their friend's life.

Many young children must face the loss of loved ones or the need to attend a funeral. This sweet story will help children to understand the positive purpose behind memorial services and how "making memories" can provide cheer and comfort when missing an absent loved one.

I admit, this was an accidental purchase. I hit "try a sample" but for some reason it bought it for me. That's never happened before, and I was going to return it.....but my 4 year old does love Chester.

This is a super sweet but sad story about dealing with loss. Chester's squirrel friend had an accident apparently, which made my 4 year old very upset. After we finished the story though, he liked how they made and talked about memories they had with the squirrel. This is a must have if you are trying to explain loss to a child.

Just got this book. Excellent story but my book was covered in waxy dirty stuff. So disgusted. I bought this to put in an elementary school library where a classmate had passed away. Not fit for that at all. What a waste of my money!

The illustrations are beautiful, with so much detail and color

Have several Chester books to read to my grandchildren. The illustrations are beautiful, with so much detail and color. The subject matter is delicately handled with tenderness and easy for little ones to understand. Have not found any other author who tackles difficult subjects with so much grace and love.
