Overview
"Strikingly poignant and elegantly rendered illustrations....[A] riveting book." -Publishers Weekly
"A story of kindness, sensitivity, and respect.... A book for all libraries, a fox for all ages." -School Library Journal
A special and unusual relationship began when Cherie Mason helped an injured fox that came into her yard one winter morning. Crippled by a steel-jawed trap, the young fox had every reason to mistrust all humans, yet he was won over by Cherie's persistent gentleness (and the tidbits from her kitchen). For half a year he was a regular visitor and became something of a celebrity in the small community of Sunset, Maine. Wild Fox is Cherie Mason's poignant story of how she befriended a wild creature, knowing that all too soon his instincts would lead him away forever. Suffused with a gentle sense of wonder, Wild Fox speaks with great resonance to a deep and very human impulse: the longing to span the gulf between the species.
Cherie Mason has been active in environment and wildlife protection causes for thirty years. She also has been an advertising executive, a radio and television actress, and an environmental journalist for Maine public and community radio stations. Cherie now lives on Deer Isle in Maine.
