TEACHERS LIKE YOU SAID…

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Adorable activity for such a difficult day for some students. Very engaging activities that help students remember the point of the story. They couldn’t wait to share with parents at the end of the day! And they were able to be reminded of Chester in the following days. Highly recommend!

~ Pre-K Teacher

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ I told myself I wasn’t going to use this book again this year…until I saw this! Cute and age-appropriate activities! ~ Kindergarten Teacher
