National Book Award Longlist

New York Times best seller

An Amazon Best Book of the Year

From best-selling and award-winning author Sara Pennypacker comes a beautifully wrought, utterly compelling novel about the powerful relationship between a boy and his fox. Pax is destined to become a classic, beloved for generations to come.

Pax and Peter have been inseparable ever since Peter rescued him as a kit. But one day, the unimaginable happens: Peter's dad enlists in the military and makes him return the fox to the wild.

At his grandfather's house, 300 miles away from home, Peter knows he isn't where he should be - with Pax. He strikes out on his own despite the encroaching war, spurred by love, loyalty, and grief, to be reunited with his fox.

Meanwhile Pax, steadfastly waiting for his boy, embarks on adventures and discoveries of his own....

Plus, don't miss Here in the Real World, Sarah Pennypacker's next gorgeous and heartfelt middle grade novel, coming in 2020!

Great story,excellent performance

My two boys and I loved this story and could not put it down. It leaves the listener with much to ponder about how we treat each other and how we treat nature.

A beautiful story

A beautiful story that was performed/read with voices that were clear and easy to listen to. Some of the story ran as expected but I really enjoyed it anyway.

Good set up, .....

... rushed and poor ending. Felt like a set up for a sequel. Probably still worth the listen though.

You don't have to be a child to love this book!

I really enjoyed this book!!! The local high school and elementary schools have this book in all our libraries. It is the cutest book with a really awesome story! I have always loved foxes. I grew up on a farm and they were very common to see.

Definitely one to listen to again!

This story of a boy and his fox was beautifully told, but surprisingly contained some nuggets of wisdom and personal growth, that it touched my own healing heart.
