Scary Stories for Young Foxes by Christian McKay Heidicker

5.0

---

I'm glad the word "scary" is right in the title. "Scary" is not being used in a cute or ironic way here. This is not the kind of story where everyone is okay in the end. There's real danger and cruelty and death. But the story does have a bittersweet happy ending. All children's books should be as honest and hopeful as this one.
