Review Detail

A cozy, wintery tale of two unlikely critters finding warmth and friendship through kindness. When Chip the bird is separated from her family, Lola the fox takes him into her home. They have many happy days together, until Chip's family returns and Lola is happy to see the love the share but also sad to be alone again. But these little birds have lots of love to go around, and they show Lola as much love as one of their own and have a happy Christmas all together.

It's a classic tale, well told. Chip and Lola show us how even the confident and inquisitive need help sometimes, and how rewarding it is to everyone to help out a new friend in need. The muted tones of the illustrations perfectly capture a cold, winter scene, with pops of color for Chip and Lola and the warm love of their newfound family.

This is a great cozy read for Christmas time with family and friends.
