But he feels as though something is missing. When he sees his younger brother spread out on the floor, creating a wondrous piece of art, he remembers how much he loves to make things. He goes to the beach to think, and it's there that a magical encounter with a fox helps him reconnect with a long-forgotten source of happiness. <p/> Simple words and stunning illustrations pair to show us there is more than one way to be a boy...and remind us of the deep satisfaction of creativity.<p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br>"[An] immensely appealing fantasy...boldly colorful....
