Our Review
This charming picture book introduces young readers to Rory, the creative son of Fox, the town's most celebrated tail-maker for animals. While Fox expertly crafts traditional tails for his diverse clientele, Rory's imagination brims with unconventional and brilliant new designs. The story beautifully explores themes of innovation, generational differences, and honoring tradition while making space for fresh ideas. It's a visually rich and engaging animal story that celebrates creativity and family bonds.
What sets this tale apart is its gentle affirmation of a child's unique perspective, showing that new ideas can complement, rather than replace, established traditions. The heartwarming father-son dynamic provides a wonderful foundation for discussions about creativity, entrepreneurship, and intergenerational collaboration. Children who enjoy stories about inventive problem-solving and supportive family relationships will find much to love in this tender narrative, which ultimately delivers a satisfying message about the value of both experience and imagination working together.
