This book has quickly become a family favorite--and this new format with padded covers and cardstock pages will become an enduring classic of the genre. As a poem about a mama fox´s unconditional love for her cub, this story describes the many moodsof all children--from happy to frightened, bashful to silly, and more--and reassures them of parents´ abiding affection and approval. Truly remarkable watercolor illustrations from David McPhail, sensitively wrought and never saccharine, are the perfect complement to Liza Baker´s rhythmic, rhyming text.
