 * Hi.
 * I’m customising a child theme in WordPress.
    The original theme has two stylesheets
   in the theme directory, ‘style.css’ and ‘memento.css’.
 * WordPress is reading its styles from ‘style.css’ correctly but not reading any
   styles from my modified version of ‘memento.css’.
 * I’ve added the following code to my child themes version of ‘style.css’ but nothing
   to the ‘memento.css’ file.
 *     ```
       /*
        Theme Name:     Meménto Child Theme
        Theme URI:      http://www.elegantthemes.com/
        Description:    Meménto Child Theme
        Author:         Elegant Themes
        Author URI:     http://www.elegantthemes.com
        Template:       memento
        Version:        1.0.0
       */
       ```

 * Do you have a copy of memento.css that you are editing in the root of your child
   theme?
 * If so, you’ll need to ensure that your child theme is loading this new file. 
   You can do that by using `wp_enqueue_style` within the functions.php file of 
   your child theme.
 * It should look something like:
 * `wp_enqueue_style( 'memento-child', get_stylesheet_directory_uri . '/memento.
   css' );`
