Relation To Books Pax

Pax was only a kit when his family was killed, and “his boy” Peter rescued him from abandonment and certain death. Now the war front approaches, and when Peter’s father enlists, Peter has to move in with his grandpa. Far worse than being forced to leave home is the fact that Pax can’t go. Peter listens to his stern father—as he usually does—and throws Pax’s favorite toy soldier into the woods. When the fox runs to retrieve it, Peter and his dad get back in the car and leave him there—alone. But before Peter makes it through even one night under his grandfather’s roof, regret and duty spur him to action; he packs for a trek to get his best friend back and sneaks into the night. This is the story of Peter, Pax, and their independent struggles to return to one another against all odds. Told from the alternating viewpoints of Peter and Pax.

Commentary Appertaining To Books Pax

*Based on a reading of an ARCLet's make 2016, the year of the fox. I really like the book, it actually reminded me of Pixars animations which cater to young and old. We dont know the time or place where this story takes place and that seems to be intentional since war affects us all, human and non-humans no matter the age, sex time or which part of the world they reside. The concept itself is not new, but its beautifully written and uses the parallel narratives of a 12 years-old boy name Peter

Not really sure how I feel. On the one hand, this is a beautifully written, beautifully illustrated, book. On the other hand, who is it for? It's violent in places, even gross, with animals being killed and having body parts blown off. Because it's about war, and the horrors of war, but war that takes place . . . where? And when? So in a way it's sort of a fairy tale, or cautionary tale. But my kids had trouble following it because they were trying to figure out: is this WWII? Is this now, in

A beautiful book, especially the illustrations were awesome. I absolutely adored the style and they helped building the atmosphere a lot. *potential spoiler ahead*I definitely get why some people are disappointed by that ending but I actually felt like it was the right thing to do.

Click here to watch a video review of this book on my channel, From Beginning to Bookend. Twelve-year-old Peter's greatest companion is his fox, Pax. When they are divided by necessity in preparation for impending war, Peter's need for his fox and his regret over the way they were separated is so great that he embarks on a difficult journey to be reunited with Pax. Meanwhile, Pax must learn to fend for himself in the wild, a new and foreign terrain he's entirely unfamiliar with. The destruction

What a great story about a boy and his fox. Pax was taken in as a kit by his boy. After five years his father makes him leave the fox in the woods saying it is because of the war. His heart is broken and this book is about both their journeys. You alternate between the story of the fox and the story of the boy. It is a very heartfelt story that I didn't want to stop. Beautifully written and full of emotion, the characters were wonderful and you rooted them on. This is a pretty short read and I

Well written, I suppose, but I was disappointed when I learned this is not just about a boy separated from his pet fox, but is also a middle grade grief book. I'm just so sick of that storyline! Then, on top of my disgust over that well-worn path for character development and plot tension, the sadness of Peter leaving Pax and Pax's struggle to survive made this a book that I had a hard time enjoying. Going into this knowing it was an animal book made me expect sadness, of course, but I think you

I avoided reading this book for awhile because I knew it would break my heart ( yes it did !) while it is a childrens book as an adult I found it a beautiful read . I loved the chapters from the foxs perspective .... we have a lot to learn .
