A memorable portrayal of companionship, love, and life blooming with seasons of colors.
A tiny, red and white fox walks on a hill and encounters a tree, who offers to be friends. Little fox doesn’t know what to respond to. There is nothing a tree could do but stand there. Under a snowstorm, little fox approaches the tree, who then offers her shelter in the tree hole to avoid the cruelty of the freezing temperature. Little fox promises that, if one day the tree could turn into her color, red and white, they will be friends. It did. The tree becomes an unconditional shelter for the little fox, and the little fox’s breathing and presence, makes the tree ever more alive.
Chen Yan-Ling’s illustration is unconventional, full of tenderness and warmth. Her delicate tracings of colors bring in breaths of compassion, unconditional love, and the value of a close-knit friendship.
