The Fox's Kettle

(3) K-3 Illustrated by Victor Bosson. When circumstances prevent Akoya from keeping a bargain with some magical foxes, they withdraw their help, and the village rice crop is ruined. Akoya, a brave and generous woman, must not only save her village but also find a way to protect the foxes from retaliation. The old Japanese setting is effectively realized in the spacious, richly patterned illustrations.
