Welcome to Booksie's Blog! I write reviews of what I've read, some of which were books sent by publishers or authors. If you would like for me to read and review your book, please contact me. I'd love to have the chance to review for you although I don't usually read to deadlines. My email address is skirkland@triad.rr.com I can't accept everything but I do read and review everything I accept. I average about 10-12 reviews a month. I tend to favor physical books over ebooks for review.

The Fox And The Star by Coralie Bickford-Smith
If you are looking for an absolutely charming picture book for a toddler or younger child, look no further. The Fox And The Star tells the story of a scared, lonely little fox who is terrified of the forest he lives in and who has no friends. At least, no friends except one. When he looks up at night, he has one friend, a star that shines brilliantly and gives him the courage to navigate his environment.
When the star disappears, the fox is distraught. After mourning, he finds the courage to go looking for his friend. The story of his search and the wonderful ending he finds are wonderful fare for little ones to hear.
The illustrations in this book are gorgeous and readers will enjoy each page. They are mostly black and white with wonderful vibrant orange and red to make the pictures pop. This is a book that young readers will reach for again and again and it is highly recommended.
