'This is the perfect book for talking to children about death' - The Guardian

In the frost-covered forest of early spring, fox is on a mission to find food for her three cubs. As they grow, she teaches them how to survive in the wild. Until one day, fox dies. Her body goes back to earth and grass and air, nourishing the world around her and bringing the forest to life. Death is not just an end, it's also a beginning.

Bringing together an evocative non-fiction narrative with breathtaking illustrations, Fox is a story that tackles the big question "What happens when we die?" and shows children that death is a natural process that leads to new life, and is no less important and awe-inspiring than any other part of our existence.

Recenzii

Exceptionally beautiful
An adept and impressive handling of a sensitive subject
The story, warmly illustrated by Daniel Egneus, not only teaches the biology of death, decomposition, and renewal but may provide solace to children affected by death or dying.
Thomas's direct language, with just the right degree of poetic resonance, pairs powerfully with Egnéus's atmospheric images; this is the perfect book for talking to children about death.
Powerful, beautifully written non-fiction
An evocative non-fiction narrative with breathtaking illustrations
A striking and sincere picture book ...Thought provoking and reassuringly hopeful ... A firm favourite amongst children and parents, teachers and book bloggers
