Apparently, this book was completely done by Chester. Like the first two books, Chester is using his red pen and writing whatever he wants. But this time, he's taken all the author's stuff and hidden it so he has more control over the making of the book. The Chester books are very funny. I think thi...

August 4 2010The Offspring and I really enjoy the Chester books which are lessons in story-telling and book-making and art, as well as amusing picture books. Chester starts out by messing about with the books Melanie Watt is producing, and in this outing he upgrades to stealing her art materials and...

It cracked us up. It's a clever metafictional riff on books for kids. It is also, now, a model for picture-book making for the Possum, who's written imitative tributes to the neighbor's cat, Max, for the daughter of the household.2008 February 17Library copy.

This book is supposed to be about a mouse, but Chester decides it needs to be about him. So, throughout the book Chester and the author are fighting back and forth to write the book their way.This is a pretty funny book. I enjoyed Chester.

Thanks Melanie Watt for making an even longer Scaredy Squirrel! I read all the picture books to my daughter, but now she is 7 and loved reading this book to me. She loved all the little details, for example a quick appearance by Chester.

Rating: 3 1/2 birch leaves out of 5Recommends: For children ages 6 to 8I started out thinking this was going to be a short quick read, but once starting and seeing all the chapters I knew I was in for quite a little sit down. I dove into this book not knowing what to expect thinking maybe its a stor...
