Today is Mother's Day, May 12th, 2013, and we're having a special day. My fourth book just won the inaugural launch of the Write Stuff's Banner of the Day!
Meet Chester in this video:
Chester the Chesapeake is one heck of a dog!
He hasn't written one book, but four!
Chester is one loveable dog. His children's book series warms children and adult dog lovers alike. Check out his paperback and ebooks under the "Chester's Books" tab and learn more about him and his events on "Chester's page."
Here is what The Midwest Book Review has to say about Chester's most recent book in 2013:
"Chester the Chesapeake Book Four: My Brother Buck continues this excellent picturebook series from the point of view of Chester, a devoted therapy dog and family pet. In My Brother Buck, a kindly neighbor calls Chester’s owner about a friendly and rambunctious dog. When no one answers the lost dog advertisements, Chester has a new brother named Buck – a big, friendly, fifty-pound dog in need of a little training!
Told from Chester’s perspective and illustrated with captivating, full color photography of Chester the Chesapeake, Buck, their canine sibling Putt-Putt and their feline sibling Kittie, My Brother Buck is a most enjoyable read-aloud story especially for young animal lovers. “Most dogs should be fixed by the vet, so they can’t have more puppies. It's sad when dogs don't have a home."
Also highly recommended are the previous books in the series, “Chester the Chesapeake (Book One), “Chester the Chesapeake: Summertime (Book Two),” and “Chester the Chesapeake: Wintertime (Book Three)."
And here is what Publishers Weekly has to say:
"Chester the Chesapeake continues to inspire, entertain, and enlighten children while his new brother, Buck, has a few surprises."
