Book Descriptions
for Chester's Way by Kevin Henkes
From Cooperative Children's Book Center (CCBC)
Cautious friends Chester and Wilson are taken aback when rambunctious Lilly moves into the neighborhood. They gradually discover they have a few interests in common and can learn new ways to do things from each other, as the twosome becomes a threesome. Bright colors, droll humor and childlike animal characters distinguish a charming, wonderfully designed story of friendship. (Ages 3-7)

From the Publisher
Chester and Wilson had their own way of doing things, and they did everything together. When they cut their sandwiches, it was always diagonally. When they rode their bikes, they always used hand signals. If Chester was hungry, Wilson was too. They were two of a kind, and that's the way it was - until indomitable Lilly, who had her own way of doing things, moved into the neighborhood.
