'Fraidy Fox is ideally a book for children who are afraid of the dark, but terrific for any child who loves a sweet tale about a beautiful animal. It tells the story of a little fox that is literally afraid of his own shadow. When his mom explains how things look different in the light than in the dark, he becomes comfortable in his incredible desert world of bright light and dark shadows. The visual progression of 'Fraidy Fox's maternal education about light and dark is brilliantly illustrated by Mike Motz.
