"The Fox and the Star is the story of a friendship between a lonely Fox and the Star who guides him through the frightfully dark forest. Illuminated by Star's rays, Fox forages for food, runs with the rabbits, and dances in the rain--until Star suddenly goes out and life changes, leaving Fox huddling for warmth in the unfamiliar dark. To find his missing Star, Fox must embark on a wondrous journey beyond the world he knows--a journey lit by courage, newfound friends, and just maybe, a star-filled new sky. Inspired by the Arts and Crafts movement and the art of William Blake, The Fox and the Star is a heartwarming, hopeful tale which comes alive through Bickford-Smith's beloved illustrations, guiding readers both young and grown to 'look up beyond your ears.'"-- Provided by publisher.

5-star illustrations submitted by h.parsamehr on July 21, 2019, 7:20am I love this book mostly for the illustrations. They make up for the mediocre story, which is not bad at all, but is nothing remarkable. I've read this multiple times just to admire the art.
The fox and the Star submitted by lstorc on August 31, 2019, 9:42pm The fox and the Star has incredible artwork! The use of block and letter printing is creative and unique! The story is ok.
