Little Fox is shivering. He has to go hunting for the first time today. But the forest is dark, the moon seems angry and the trees look like monsters. And he really doesn’t want to catch animals ... Fox returns to his parents with a playmate, roots and berries, but no prey. ‘That’s not right for a fox,’ sighs dad. Time after time, his parents send him back into the forest. Little Fox thinks he has to hunt. If I don’t catch anything, I can never go home again. But is that really true?
Themes: fear, being yourself, vegetarianism
Reviews:
'Fox must hunt is a beautiful picture book for children ages 4 and up. It contains a story that encourages reflection, about being different from your parents. It is an ideal book to read to your (grand)children and contains beautiful illustrations by An Candaele.' (Bookcase Web, December 2023)
'A wonderful starting point to talk about “being different,” about respect for nature, about emotions like being alone, being afraid, friendship.' Brigitte Minne has written another extraordinary book.' (Jan Stoel, Bazarow, January 2024)
