Pax by Sara Pennypacker
5.0

Sweet, sweet, sweet. And well written. Come of age story for a boy and for his fox. I really feel like I know what it feels like to be a fox now. Even better, I just fell in love with Pax the fox and his journey, and I enjoyed the journey of his human, too. The ending is just right, which is giving away nothing. Great read, the world has needed a good new animal story.

One cool element of the story is that it is placed in an unspecified America, in the future, with a war going on. Very interesting element to add some angst, but don't worry, it doesn't get into the details.
