2023 PUBWEST DESIGN AWARDS WINNER 2024 CIPA EVVY AWARDS WINNER | GOLD 2024 CIPA EVVY AWARDS WINNER | Herb Tabak Choice Award “This book needs not one breath more for its perfect autumn and winter message.” —School Library Journal, starred review Gray Fox wanders alone in the forest at night. The woods are illuminated in the silvery light of the full moon and stars. She gazes around in wonder at the light in the birch grove and stops to look at her reflection in the river. But something calls to her in her reverie. She must return to her den by dawn to care for her kits when they wake. With simple poetry young children will love, Gray Fox in the Moonlight is a journey through a nighttime wonderland that celebrates the love between parents and children. Simple two-color illustrations overflow with light in this evergreen story that illustrates the value of independence in the parental relationship as well as the powerful bond which calls us home from wandering. Gray Fox in the Moonlight revels in the profound beauty of nature. MORE PRAISE FOR GRAY FOX IN THE MOONLIGHT “The text matches the fox’s steps so perfectly that readers may feel as though they’re following her home through the woods.” —Kirkus Reviews

A sweet, gentle story about a fox walking through the forest at night, on her way home. It‘s a perfect bedtime story due to its slow pace and gentle scenes. The illustrations add to the quiet feel of the book.

I highly recommend reading some children‘s books during this difficult time. It really helps with emotional regulation. Many children‘s books are designed for that very purpose.
