Ruby the fox and Growl the wolf live deep in the forest. There’s just one problem – they hate each other…!
But when a raging storm tears through the forest and the animals have to flee, they must help each other to survive. Can Ruby and Growl overcome their enmity and find friendship in the heart of the storm?
An exciting, fast-paced picture book adventure with stunning illustrations, celebrating courage and the importance of helping each other.
"A dramatic tale of a fox and a wolf caught in a storm, vividly captured in Read's bright collaged illustrations. This picture book is an exciting story of enemies-to-friends, told with evocative language for 5+ readers."
* The Bookseller *"There is a lot of cuteness in picture books but this is definitely not saccharine: the raging, swirling water and fierce lightning strikes, perfectly depicted by Read in swirling greys, browns and blues, add a real sense of danger to the story. Eventually, the storm breaks and calm is restored. Here, friendship is about survival."
