Translated by Shelley Tanaka.
This profoundly odd and unexpected little story, with its thick-black-lined and angular mixed-media illustrations, centers on a fox driven to a life of crime because of his (literal) appetite for books. Translated from the German, the text includes a surprising level of detail and subtle humor about the fox's visits to a library and bookstore, his prison stay, and his rise to fame.
