Review

This graphic novel is the 5th in the series. You can figure out what is going on in the story but the relationship between the badger and fox family isn't really clear. I am not sure this will be important to younger children. The story is about the hardship of winter and how having a fun day, like a carnival day, can make the worries of winter seem less important just for the day. The drawings are adorable in this graphic novel. The story is good but not one that is of high interest. I would give this book 3 out of 5 stars.

Overall Book Score: good
