A bedtime kiss for Chester Raccoon review

Description:
The sun is up, it's time for little Chester Raccoon to go to bed, but he is frightened by the shadows the sun is creating on the walls. Mrs. Raccoon soothes him with a Kissing Hand, and he is able to go to sleep.

This sweet and decidedly unscary board book is both a light-hearted way to calm children's fears at bedtime, along with a gentle introduction to Chester Raccoon and the Kissing Hand for the younger child. Funny illustrations will gentle the scary-looking shadows in a bedroom.

My Review:

Another wonderful Chester Raccoon story!  This book introduces the concept that some animals sleep during the daytime (which brought about some really interesting discussions for Princess A and I) while still addressing those scary things when trying to sleep, shadows on the wall.    Presented in a pleasant rhyme, this short book is great to read before naptime.  The illustrations are darling as usual and my little one loves the imagination of Chester as he turns shadows into crocodiles and dancing spiders!
