From the author of The Kissing Hand comes a tale for bedtime. Most children are afraid of the dark when they go to bed, but Chester Raccoon goes to bed during the day and is afraid of the sun! Instead of things that go bump in the night, he thinks he sees alligators and spiders in the sunny shadows of his raccoon den. His mother finally appeases his fears when her soft, sweet words comfort him and gives him a kiss on the hand to give him sweet afternoon dreams.
