‘In the Wild Wood, a fox must be brave and cunning and quick.’
Foxy loves his mother’s stories about the Wild Wood: about rabbits and badgers, squirrels and owls, and the tall, thin deer, with horns like tree branches.
Foxy decides to set out on his own wild adventure. But can he be brave and cunning and quick enough to find his way back home?
Beloved Irish writer McCaughren makes a return to picturebooks, partnered with McGann, in a tale best suited for crisp October evenings as little Foxy bravely sets out to explore the sights and sounds of the Wild Wood. Bergin's autumnal illustrations truly shine here, capturing domestic gardens and wilder woodlands in the warm glow of the rough and tumble of Foxy's adventure
-- Irish ExaminerThe author of the classic Irish children’s novel, Run with the Wind, is back with a picture book featuring one of his beloved foxes. Little Foxy creeps from his den in search of adventure so that he can earn his bushy red tail. The reader follows Foxy’s journey through the Wild Wood, across gardens and trampolines, until he finds safely once more. A delightful story for young children with glowing, autumnal illustrations by Shannon Bergin. A bedtime winner!
