I love the idea of slipping of to sleep at night with the sound of the sea as a boy. I love Jimmy’s curiosity in this tale. I learned more about foxes from this piece than I ever learned before. Thanks for this.

The stories are terrific.

Love the part about foxes using their cute babies to lure dinner in.

Another fine painting, too.

He has an ability to capture us with the small details of a day that in another’s hands would not come alive.

Pure poetry; the look and feel of the foxes, the details of their existence and Mr Jones’ love of life are captured in the simplest, most elegant way. I loved this story.
