Rad!
Anne Bustard and Daniel Wiseman
In this family-oriented picture book, one brave cat discovers how rad trying new things can be! Esther, Chester, Hester, and Sylvester are stoked to shred at the skate park! But unlike his daring brothers and sisters, Lester is a total fraidycat. Skateboarding doesn't come easily to him - and with only nine lives to spare, why should he risk one on the halfpipe? When Lester sees how much fun his family is having, he decides to give it a shot anyway . . . only to wipe out! With the encouragement of his supportive siblings, Lester gets back up and tries again.
