Product Description

Review

"On Little Foxes the Guardian said: 'Imaginatively written... Highly recommended,' and the Observer said: 'Combines suspense, surprise and a tear or two.'"

Product Description

From master storyteller Michael Morpurgo comes "Little Foxes". Bullied at school, nagged in Aunty May's tenth-floor council flat, there's only one place Billy really feels alive - in the wilderness by the canal. There he watches a cygnet on the water and protects a family of fox cubs. Then his secret place is discovered and the fox family decimated. Unwanted and unloved, Billy and the last fox run for their lives.

5.0 out of 5 stars My all time favourite!!!!, 13 Jan 2008
By Mehajabeen Farid "mej_farid" (Coventry) - See all my reviews
(TOP 1000 REVIEWER)   
This review is from: Little Foxes (Paperback)
Foster child Billy Bunch has always been an outsider until he discovers a new world, among the wild creatures of the riverbank. His experiences there lead him to a secure and happy future. Action, passion and emotion can be felt in this story involving bullying, and a family of foxes who need protection.
As a baby, nobody wanted Billy but he was fostered. One day he went into the wilderness while staying in a busy city with his foster carer, and finds a swan which he adores but the next day the swan was gone and ten he finds 4 foxes. Later in the story, 3 are gassed but the older cub survives and Billy Bunch adopts him. In the end, Billy sees the beautiful swan once more! I think it was a wonderful book and I think anybody and absolutely everyone who loves foxes and other animals will enjoy it. Because of the book's brilliance, wonderfulness and the touch of love, I would rate this book 1000000000000/ 10.

5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent, very moving story, 18 Jun 2008
By wonky_eggs "wonky_eggs" (Yorkshire, England) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Little Foxes (Paperback)
I remember reading this book as a child, it really interested me as I was always outdoors and into wildlife in a big way. The story is very moving, has lots of adventure, has a good animal-friendly message - and a story that certainly made me cry at the end! An excellent story, and one I can't wait to read again when my nephew is old enough to read it!

Little Foxes is a book by Michael Morpurgo. It is about a boy. As a baby nobody wanted him but was fostered. One day he went into the wilderness, and finds 4 foxes. 3 are gassed but the older cub survives and the boy adopts him. I think it was a wonderful book and I think everybody who loves foxes and other animals will enjoy it. This has to be the book for you! (By Aoife M)
