A beautiful and heartfelt picture book to help children celebrate the memories left behind when a loved one dies. Fox has lived a long and happy life in the forest, but now he is tired. He lies down in his favourite clearing, and falls asleep for ever. Before long, Fox’s friends begin to gather in the clearing. 

One by one, they tell stories of the special moments that they shared with Fox. And so, as they share their memories, a tree begins to grow, becoming bigger and stronger with each memory, sheltering and protecting all the animals in the forest, just as Fox did when he was alive.

This gentle story about the loss of a loved one is perfect for sharing and will bring comfort to both children and parents.

James Y. ★★★★★

The gentle way this book explains loss through Fox's peaceful journey really helped my six-year-old understand something I struggled to put into words. I especially loved how the story focuses on celebrating memories rather than just sadness, which made our conversation afterward feel natural instea

Ava ★★★★★

My four-year-old asked to read it three nights in a row after her grandma passed, and the gentle way the book talks about Fox resting really opened up a conversation I was dreading. The illustrations are soft and comforting, perfect for little ones processing big feelings.

Elizabeth S. ★★★★★

We lost our family dog last spring, and this book was the perfect way to talk about it with my 5-year-old. The gentle story of Fox’s peaceful passing made it so much easier to explain something so hard. She asks to read it every night now.
