About this listen

The Fox’s Messenger is a whimsical short story by beloved Japanese children’s author Nankichi Niimi.

In Japanese folklore, foxes are magical creatures capable of transforming into humans, often appearing as beautiful women. They can be clever tricksters, mysterious visitors, or even kind-hearted protectors.

But the fox in this story is slightly different—perhaps a bit foolish and certainly amusing.

Filled with charm and gentle humor, this tale is perfect for reading aloud to children and offers a lighthearted take on one of Japan’s most famous mythical animals.
