About

Fox Goes North Synopsis

Winnie-the-Pooh meets The Boy, The Mole, The Fox and the Horse in this charming, emotionally touching children's fable from award-winning author Jeremy Strong, highly illustrated in black and blue colour printing and launched in a beautiful, covetable hardback.

An extraordinary house on wheels is being towed along a forest track by doleful Moose. On board the house are philosophical Fox; distinguished Bear; theatrical Toucan, with his magnetic beak that always points north; argumentative Little Owl, and loving, excitable Young Llama.

With nothing but her little blue suitcase, Fox has left home to join the animals' expedition to the Snowlands to see the Northern Lights. They encounter many ups and downs on their journey, but it is beneath the magic of the Lights that they must face their most heart-wrenching loss...

By turns funny, thoughtful and heartfelt, this is a story about the importance of art, music, books, shortbread biscuits and, ultimately, saying goodbye to the ones we love.

  • This stunning book with its iconic animal characters has all the hallmarks of a future classic, with notes of The Jungle Book and Charlotte's Web, ideal for fans of Sara Pennypacker's Pax and Iona Rangeley's Einstein the Penguin.
  • With beautiful art and a courageous, touching message, this is perfect winter's tale for readers young and old, from age 7+.
  • Jeremy Strong handles themes of life and loss with a lightness of touch, gentle humour and heart-warming hope and empathy. Fox Goes North is published posthumously after the author's death in August 2024.
