Scary Stories for Young Foxes

by Christian McKay Heidicker

Just the kind of book I would have devoured as a kid! Is it really scary? Yes, because the life of an animal is dangerous and frightening, and this guy is really, really, good at somehow making the reader feel connected and engaged with a bunch of baby foxes. Glad it got some Newbery love, too. This is the kind of book that makes readers, and I can't wait to share it with students, and read it to my son when he's a little older.
