Scary Stories for Young Foxes by Christian McKay Heidicker

3.0

This book was not for me. The dangerous situations that the foxes found themselves in were very real dangers for foxes, combined with very real dangers for human children, so as an adult reader this was tragic and anxiety- ridden, not horror that borders on fun. I am not sure how to judge which children would love this book, but I am sure they are out there. For my kids, though, I think Beatrix Potter and am abusive father as the villains would be too difficult to process in time to sleep well at night.

It is, though, very well written, with extremely strong characters and setting. It's a beautiful book.
