Review

All the woodland animals try to get Fox to prepare for winter but he would rather keep playing. So, while he splashes in the lake and chases butterflies, his friends prepare for winter. When he is left all alone, cold and hungry, as his friends are tucked into their beds. He sees a star in the sky and makes a wish. Suddenly a box falls from the sky and hits him in the head. The box is full of toys and food and Fox decides to share his gifts with each of his friends. After he apologizes for not listening to them, his friends help Fox find a warm place near them to rest for the winter . Each illustration is enhanced with silver sparkle in this warm story of friendship.

Overall Book Score: good
