Chester Raccoon is thrilled for his first sleepover at Pepper Opossum's house. Games and snacks fill the day, but as night descends, Chester struggles to sleep, missing his family despite the comfort of his Kissing Hand. Will he find solace in this new environment, or will homesickness prevail? Join Chester on this relatable journey of adventure and reassurance, where he learns that home is always waiting.

From the publisher

Are we almost there? Chester Raccoon asked his mother. Chester is excited about going to his very first sleepover. After his mother drops him off at Pepper Opossum’s house with a Kissing Hand in his palm, Chester and his animal friends have a long day of playing games and eating snacks. But when the animals decide to bed down, Chester can’t go to sleep. While his Kissing Hand has kept him from getting scared, he isn’t in his own bedroom, and he misses his family. When Chester returns home, Mrs. Raccoon welcomes her little cub and reassures him that his home is always there when he needs it. Young readers will enjoy reading about the party fun and take comfort when Chester finds himself in a situation they can relate to.
