The Undead Fox of Deadwood Forest is a heartwarming story of peace, pleasure, progress and pain. I loved the way the author portrayed such strong elements of grief and loss, life and love in a way that was both understandable and appealing to smaller people. * Jodie, WA, 5 stars * Perfect for reading along with your child as it offers gentle, but subtle provocations to discuss social and friendship issues that may be present in your child’s life. This book will one day be a classic! I hope there will be more to come. * Julie, VIC, 5 stars *
