Hector Fox and the Giant Quest: 1 (Hector Fox and Friends)

Product Information

Astrid Sheckels, a native of the small farming town of Hatfield, Massachusetts, cannot remember a time when she was not telling or illustrating stories.

She grew up with her father's and grandfather''s stories, so it's not surprising that Astrid herself enjoys telling stories—though she prefers to tell hers visually, using illustrations to give a story more depth and dimension. The story is sweet -furry friends finding out whether fairytales exist) but short and I would have loved more text to read to my children.

With twists and turns and a capsized boat, the five friends venture far from home and make a surprising discovery -- a huge discovery! If you’d like to file an allegation of infringement, you’ll need to follow the process described in our Copyright and Intellectual Property Policy.
