I work with children grades K-5, and I could see many of those children picking up this book for the beautiful, eye-catching artwork. The poem itself was a bit underwhelming to me, though I do think it's written in an easily digestible way that will work well for a younger audience.
Thank you NetGalley for the ARC. The pictures were beautiful, however, I did not care for this book. I have two little children, and they prefer books with a clear storyline.
Thank you to NetGalley and the publisher for an advanced copy!
I love Ada Limón's poetry, and this did not disappoint. Such a sweet and beautiful little jaunt, perfect for introducing younger readers to poetry and enjoyable for anyone else who picks it up!
Thank you Netgalley for the ARC.
This is a lovely little poetry children's book. The art is honestly more appealing than the actual poetry, though the poetry is nice on its own. Even as someone who doesn't like insects, the art made everything beautiful to look at.
The poetry itself was whimsical and floaty, and should be pretty comprehensible for younger readers.
Thank you so much to the author and illustrator, Ada Limón and Gaby D'Alessandro, the publisher, Carolrhoda Books, and NetGalley for the opportunity to read this children's book, And Too, the Fox, in digital form. I will post my review to Goodreads, Amazon, and Barnes & Noble upon release!
This is a beautiful and sweet tale following a fox goes through its day, in its own simple and wonderful way. The illustrations are absolutely gorgeous, on another level. especially of the fox in the grass and nature scenes. I think the illustrations will capture a child's attention and imagination and the story will teach them something about life and nature. I loved the idea of the fox going about its day as if it's always play - an inspiration to remember to find joy in the little everyday tasks. This is a book parents will enjoy, too. There is also a sad reminder at the end about what might happen when we can't look out our windows in the early morning and see the simple beauty of a fox anymore; inspiration to move forward climate justice.
