      Little Fox is the result of a real urge to experiment, the power of language, a love of life, and an outstanding collaboration between illustrator Marije Tolman and author Edward van de Vendel. The central figure in this harmonious picture story is a fox cub who wants nothing more than to discover life, but then takes a tumble and finds himself in a dream that is actually a near-death experience. 'Curiosity will be the death of you,' as Little Fox has learned from Father Fox. But is that really true? After all, if you don't go out to explore, you don't get to know life and what it's all about - that is the inspiring message of this colorful story.

      Nino doesn t have a dog, but he likes to imagine that he does. His imaginary dog chases squirrels and plays in the lake with him. His imaginary dog licks the tears off Nino s face and helps Nino feel less lonely while his dad is traveling. But when Nino gets a real dog, it s not quite what he expected. As he spends more time with his dog, though, Nino learns how to be content with what he has, but that doesn t stop him from continuing to dream. This award-winning book beautifully depicts the art of finding a balance between imagination and reality.
