(Spoilers ahead) Chester’s beloved family start neglecting him. Heartbroken, he leaves in search of a new home. Dragging his little doghouse behind him, and accompanied by his bird friend, he quests far and wide, only to be met with a series of disappointments. The whimsical art and poor little Chester’s persistence struck a chord with me. It is a sweet book, a sad book, and a reminder not to neglect our loved ones. And yes, Chester does find his home, or rather, it finds him.
