About this Event
Be Brave!
Join us in-store to celebrate the launch of the new picture book by MATTHEW BURGESS and illustrated by JULIE BENBASSAT! This endearing tale is full of suspense and foxy resolve as a young fox goes out on his own for the very first time!
Mungo and his mom live in a cozy warm den in the forest. One night after finishing his dinner, Mungo gets a craving for red berries. Although the red berry bush is faraway from their home, his mother agrees that it's time for him to forage on his own. So off Mungo goes into the cold forest to search for the tart berries, only to get very lost! Will he find the berries — and his way back home — all on his own?
With thoughtful text by MATTHEW BURGESS and adorable artwork by JULIE BENBASSAT, your young readers will delight in Mungo's exciting journey as he braves through the unknown and reach his tasty goal! JULIE BENBASSAT will also be decorating our window ahead of our event, so be sure to check it out!
