Mommy's Little Star Book

On a beautiful autumn day, Little Fox sings a joyful song about trees that reach to the top of the sky. But Mommy Fox says the sky doesn't stop there! Little Fox and Mommy Fox spend a fun day in search of things that go higher than a tree. Bees and birds do, so do a rainbow, clouds, and the sun, moon, and stars!

Little Fox thinks the sky must stop somewhere, but Mommy Fox explains there is no top. The sky is like love. It goes on and on forever. And it starts right at home . . . with her own little star.

Children's Literature

Little Fox and Mommy Fox are enjoying a pleasant autumn day. Little Fox tries catching falling leaves, but soon discovers there are too many to catch them all. He looks to the top of trees and thinks they go to the top of the sky. Mommy Fox tells him something goes higher. As the pattern continues, Little Fox contemplates the flights of bees and birds. He admires a rainbow and clouds. The sun and moon are high in the sky, but there are stars beyond them. As they gaze into the night sky, Mommy Fox explains that the sky goes on and on forever. It has no beginning and it has no end, just like the love Mommy Fox has for Little Fox, her own little star. They cuddle together as Little Fox falls asleep. Large, colorful illustrations feature appealing foxes with oversized heads walking and standing on their hind legs as they wander through a peaceful forest. A comforting bedtime story.
