Chester Greenwood's Big Idea

Chester Greenwood's Big Idea

Chapter 1: Cold Ears This is the story of Chester Greenwood and his big idea. Chester lived a long time ago in a small town in Maine. The winters were very cold there.

Chester Greenwood had big ears. His ears got very cold in the winter. Chester tried many things. He just couldn't keep his ears warm.

Chester got a very special present the day he turned fifteen: ice skates! They were just what he wanted. It was very cold outside, and the pond was frozen solid. It was a good day to try out those new skates.

Soon, Chester was skating with his friends. Then it got colder, and the wind began to blow. Chester's ears felt like ice cubes. He was just too cold to keep skating. He gave up and went home.

Chapter 2: Chester's Plan Chester loved his new skates. But when he skated, the cold wind whistled past his ears. His ears got so cold that they hurt! Chester needed to find a way to keep his ears warm. The next day, he wrapped his scarf around and around his head. Then he walked to the pond.
