About the Book



"A young fox befriends a bluebird she finds in the woods"--



Book Synopsis



When a young fox rescues a baby blue bird, her life is upended by the sudden new addition.

Hazel discovers an egg while out for a walk in the woods, and much to her surprise--Tip! Tip! Tap!--out pops a baby bird. She names him Herbert, and from then on, he sticks to her like jam on toast.

But Hazel likes her routine, and Herbert's always underfoot. No matter what she's doing, Hazel simply can't get a moment's peace. What's a fox to do?



Review Quotes




"Thoughtfulness infuses this sweet story, as do gentle humor and perfectly complementary watercolor art . . . The warmhearted ending reinforces the idea that friendships are complicated, conciliatory, and ultimately gratifying. Unfailingly tender." --Kirkus Reviews
