Review
A beautiful piece of design coupled with thoughtful prose ... [A] masterpiece * Newsweek * The most physically beautiful book I had the pleasure of holding in my hands in 2015 ... Really, The Fox and the Star is an art book, a chance for the abundantly talented Bickford-Smith - best-known for designing the crave-worthy Penguin hardcover classics - to create an entire book from scratch. The simple story of a young fox who loses his best friend only to discover a whole new world makes a sweet premise, but the main attraction is Bickford-Smith's masterful exercise of the book designer's craft * Salon.com * Brilliant ... A delight -- Philip Pullman A per-fect gift . . . I would like to frame each page -- Lauren Child, Guardian 'Books of the Year' A star book for all ages ... the sort you want to keep for ever -- Kate Kellaway * Observer * What keeps the pages turning is the remarkable illustrations, which shift from spread to spread ... It's a spectacular show of friendship's power to change and fill lives * Boston Globe * Intricate, exquisite... An outstanding gift for five-plus readers -- Amanda Craig, 'Picture Book of the Year' * New Statesman * A classic fable * Daily Telegraph * A brief, beautiful book . . . If ever there was a reason to down the Kindle and go back to paper, this is it . . . Her story is a delight . . . It would, I think, act as a wonderful salve to anyone of any age who has experienced love and loss -- Alex O'Connell * The Times * Colourful, substantial and something to keep forever * Stylist * It's great . . . Individual, elegantly and impeccably designed, and with a touching story; and it's technically and graphically intriguing -- David Gentleman [This] beautifully illustrated picture book contains a moving message about love, loss and learning to accept change * Marie Claire * Selected in Time Out's 100 best children's books * Time Out * Winner: Graphic Novels and Picture Books categories * 3x3 Mag * One of the most beautiful kids books in recent memory * St. Louis Post-Dispatch * A delightful surprise for fairy tale lovers of all ages * Parade *
