A rich reading experience awaits those who pick up this title." -School Library Journal, starred review "Visually captivating introduction to the red fox's secret life...Pringle thoughtfully explains how red foxes are canines, omnivores and predators...with specialized vocabulary printed in italics in the narrative and defined in a glossary. Intimate scenes...alternate with panoramic vistas, capturing the essence of the red fox and her world...(the) illustrations add depth, drama, and detail to the informative, entertaining text." -- Kirkus Reviews
