Illustrated by
Georg Hallensleben.
A baby fox's parents teach him to find food, hide from his enemies, and "run like the wind." Banks's lullaby text speaks directly to young children, reassuring them that growing up happens naturally. Hallensleben's paintings depict lush surroundings in rich, natural colors, while his simple, solid animal figures express human emotion. Perfect for sharing at bedtime.
