“The illustrations in this wordless picture books are absolutely gorgeous and constructed from photographs of cut paper. The simple message of being kind even when others aren't and the little ways we can repay others is nice, but somehow the wordless nature of the story makes it seem more dangerous to have harbored a fox than it might otherwise in a children's boo.”
