A Game of Fox & Squirrels by Jenn Reese

4.0

Thank you Edelweiss+ for an advanced reader copy of this book for an honest review.

This book is about Sam and her sister who has been taken from her home by social services and sent to live with her Aunt and her wife who she didn't know about. There are small clues throughout the book as to why they were taken from her home, but nothing definite until the end of the book.

Sam is given a card game from her Aunt as a birthday game. Almost immediately, she starts seeing the fox, Ashander, from the game. He talks to her and tells her that he has a way for her to get home and all she has to do is past his tests. Ashander is charming, manipulative, scary, and dangerous.

Read this book! It was wonderful and so heartwarming. I cried, I laughed, and I cheered for Sam and her family.

Find out what happened to Sam and her sister. It's a wonderful way to tell a story that no one usually talks about and how to get other children to speak up.
