Two sisters--one kind, one unkind--one rewarded and one punished by the wishing foxes.
Thoughts: I love to find new-to-me Appalachian fairy tales. I am familiar with tales of this type (Toads & Diamonds is a more well known version), but the mountain flavor of The Wishing Foxes is a treat. I can't wait to share with students the next time fairy tales is my elementary outreach theme. The cut paper illustrations are vibrant and colorful. My favorite illustrations are of the foxes.
Themes: Fairy Tales/Folk Tales, Elementary
