Little Fox is collecting falling leaves, but there are so many, right up to the top of the sky, Little Fox tells Mommy Fox. But Mommy Fox says there’s something even higher than the trees.

Is it bees? Is it birds? Maybe it’s the rainbow.

But each time Little Fox guesses, Mommy Fox always says there’s something higher. What can it be?

Charming, colorful illustrations accompany this tender tale of a mother’s love. The targeted audience is the young reader, ages four through eight [preschool through third grade]. This tender story celebrates the beauty of nature and the strength of a mother’s love. The foil stars on the cover capture the young reader’s attention and those on the final page are both brilliant and comforting. It’s a perfect parent/child bedtime story.

Highly recommended. ( )

An inquisitive fox kit continually asks the question " What's higher in the sky?" to each answer his mother gives him--the trees, the rainbow, the cloud, etc.---A sweet bedtime tale that leaves our kit (and yours) feeling safe and loved. ( )
