**From the award-winning designer of the iconic Penguin Hardcover
Classics comes a beautifully illustrated fable about loss, friendship,
and courage
**
The Fox and the Star is the story of a friendship between a lonely Fox
and the Star who guides him through the frightfully dark forest.
Illuminated by Star's rays, Fox forages for food, runs with the rabbits,
and dances in the rain--until Star suddenly goes out and life changes,
leaving Fox huddling for warmth in the unfamiliar dark. To find his
missing Star, Fox must embark on a wondrous journey beyond the world he
knows--a journey lit by courage, newfound friends, and just maybe, a
star-filled new sky.
Inspired by the Arts and Crafts movement and the art of William Blake,
The Fox and the Star is a heartwarming, hopeful tale which comes alive
through Bickford-Smith's beloved illustrations, guiding readers both
young and grown to "look up beyond your ears."
