"On a hill above the valley there was a wood. In the wood there was
a huge tree. Under the tree there was a hole. In the hole lived Mr
Fox and Mrs Fox and their four Small Foxes. . . " Mr Fox is a very
clever fox - every evening he creeps down into the valley and helps
himself to food from the nearby farms. Chickens from Farmer Boggis,
ducks and geese from Farmer Bunce, and turkeys from Farmer Bean.
But now the farmers have had enough, and together they hatch a plan
to get rid of Mr Fox for good! But what they don't know is Mr Fox
has some help, and a fantastic escape plan of his own...
A young girl begins a new life in the English countryside and
discovers a remarkable horse After her parents are killed in a car
accident, Ellie leaves the rolling hills of New Zealand behind to
live in England with her uncle, who is as cold and gray as the
country she now must call home. A hard-eyed horse breeder, he hates
weakness in all animals, whether they have four legs or two.
Although Ellie loves horses, she can't stand being ordered around
by her uncle and the coldhearted Luke. Even the kind words of her
cousin Joe aren't enough to make her feel at home--until she meets
a horse named Spirit. Ellie sees the skinny gray gelding at a sale,
and spends the last of her insurance money to save his life. She
can tell Spirit is special, but she has no idea that this horse
will unlock a marvelous power in her. The two soon form a
friendship the likes of which the world has never seen. Winner of
the 2012 Lincolnshire Young People's Book Award.
