Little Fox — Marilyn Janovitz

""Despite warnings, Little Fox thinks his mother's chair is 'just right' for climbing, jumping on, and riding. Finally, it breaks, and his mother has nowhere to sit...Little Fox and Father repair the old chair, which turns out to be 'just right' for cuddling and reading. A situation that most preschoolers can relate to."" (School Library Journal)

""Janovitz's airy, pastel, pencil-and-watercolor illustrations, sparked with intricate textures and detail, portray the endearing fox family in both home and store environments. Told in simple, gentle prose, this tale of consequences and making things right also conveys the ideas that favorite things can't be easily replaced, new isn't always better, and people and objects need to be treated respectfully and with care.""
