Red Fox runs on and on through the snow in search of food for his family. Then he makes the long trek back to his den where his mate and cubs are waiting./ / Hunger runs beside you / On this cold and frozen day." Elegant metaphors (the silence of an eagle's shadow, the loneliness of being left behind by migrating cranes) convey the emptiness within the starving fox. The urgent tempo of the narrative echoes the animal's growing hunger: "Red fox running, / Running through the snow, / White sky above / And white earth below. But "red fox, weary" turns to "red fox, joyous" when he sniffs out prey and returns to feed his family. Facing each page of verse is a full-page painting; alternating with these are textless full-spread depictions of the fox's outdoor world. . Copyright 1993 Reed Business Information, Inc. The book hints at the cost of the hunt--"Your paws are raw and bleeding, / Your body's sore and spent"--but identifies the unlucky victim only in the illustrations, as a vague fuThis book is the best book on advanced partial differential equations i know. Terrible waste of money.. This latest publication from Factory Physics is excellent. You could have perhaps used a great printer and get as good results as these (from good to acceptable to poor).In my case, that perhaps could be overlooked if the REAL problem was not the disappointment with the images.In its introduction, the editor "warns" us that these will stir our imagination.AND.maybe give you a chuckle or two.IndeedChuckles I did not get, as my memory was fixed on those long-ago hours in which I "stirred" and was terrified by the images.No more. Instead, I got a much greater gift out of the deal! I truly got The Magic back in my lifechild-like magic that I've long forgotten about. This allows Blake's amazing illustrations to help readers see that aging is about being young as grandparents enjoy life as children do.I can only hope that I age this well :).. This beginner's guide has really taught me a lot. The pictures are very good and the finished projects are quite lovely. I am trying out the ideas in this book.. If I wanted a Xerox copy of a book, I could have done that myself. I don't mind a little romance to move the story along, but I don't like it when a book is described as mystery or thriller or whatever and it turns out to be nothing more than a juvenil
