(4) K-3 Illustrated by Rosalind Beardshaw. In this slim story, Little Fox and his father, taking a walk one spring day, see other animals building nests or clearing out holes. Little Fox speculates about living high in a nest or deep underground, but ultimately he and his father decide to build their own new den. Warm-hearted illustrations of smiling foxes and other furry creatures have some appeal.

(4) PS Illustrated by Rosalind Beardshaw. A mother and child fox contemplate the sky's unending expanse as autumn leaves fall, bees and birds fly, a rainbow appears, the sun sets, and the moon rises. Though the text grows stale, the illustrations effectively change from day scenes into night, culminating with the sheen of numerous stars against a dark-blue sky.
