Description from the product page:
"Mother and Father Fox teach their four cubs to hunt, escape danger, and survive on their own. Their skills are tested when a coyote appears in the distance. How will the baby cubs react? Smithsonian's Backyard series features entertaining stories that answer many questions children have about the habits and habitats of the animals in our own backyards. Settle down on your sofa and open up this trip to nature just down the lane.
What's good?
* It is engaging and interactive and I love that we can also touch the objects in each page on the screen and the words pop out to tell you what it is!
* I like the storyline where it tells how a Mother and Father fox teach their 4 cubs to hunt for food and also how they defend themselves and their cubs from predators (coyotes).
* I used the opportunity in this book to teach my 3.5 years old son about the Red Fox, how it hunts for food and also defends itself and its cubs from predators.
* The illustration is beautiful and quite life-like!
