Brothers Joe and Cody, their parents, and pet dog Ootsie, along with the family's eight-husky sled-dog team, go ice fishing. When the dogs spy a fox, they take off after it--dragging Mama and Joe along. The book, with its bilingual format (English text followed by Cree translation), cream-colored paper, and richly textured paintings, is handsome and useful.
