The Fox Cub Bold
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 16 years ago
This fourth instalment sees a young cub wild in the "real world" for the first time after voluntarily segregating himself from his friends and his father, "the Farthing Wood fox", whose shadow continues to hang over him. Impressively Dann manages to draw immediate focus to a single character and his few acquaintances after spending so much time on the huge Farthing Wood cast. He does so with grace and clarity, creating a story that presents itself with crystal clarity whilst prompting strong emotional responses in the reader. It's hard to believe that a fox's circumstances could illicit such powerful responses! The protagonist is superbly draw and rounded in a way that I don't see even in most adult fiction. You'll be swept along in a wonderful, funny, and very sad story that has always been my favourite of the series. 9/10
