"A captivating moonlit adventure, perfect for a bedtime story on a frosty night."
Rob Biddulph's I Follow the Fox is the most gorgeous wintry tale of a small lost teddy returned to its owner by a beautiful fox, and a sprinkling of magic.
The picture book opens with a wonderful snowy scene of children and animals playing in a winter wonderland. Amid the snowball fights, snowmen and snow angels stands a little boy, looking forlornly at his empty sledge, “This morning I lost Little Fox in the park.” Keen-eyed readers might spot a smudge of rusty red peeping from behind a tree, but despite Mum and Dad searching long after dark, Little Fox is nowhere to be found.
Later that evening, as dreams swirl and night-time magic stirs, the little boy hears his name, and outside his window spots “A beautiful fox, sitting there in the snow, Her fur is afire and her eyes are aglow. She nods and then walks past the old letterbox, And I make my decision to follow the fox.”
What follows is a captivating moonlit adventure - perfect for a bedtime story on a frosty night. Told in flowing, evocative rhyme, the text is a joy to read aloud, and the illustrations offer a beautiful palette of frosty blues, greens and sparkling whites, all set off by the magnificent “rusty red guide.”
