Getting creative with Karen Hendricks and her book Go Away Foxy Foxy

In this special Books on Wednesday post, I am delighted to introduce you to Karen Hendricks and her lovely new picture book Go Away Foxy Foxy.

 In this post, written by Karen, she explains how creativity is explored in the picture book and suggests conversations you can have with children to encourage their creativity. The post is part of a Books on Tour promotion.

About Go Away, Foxy Foxy

© Karen Hendriks

Go Away, Foxy Foxy is a delightful story of three little bunnies who decide to sleep out in a tree house one night. Outside in the dark, Foxy Foxy prowls. He’d like nothing better than to make a feast of those little bunnies. The bunnies show different levels of fear and bravery and use their intelligence, without having to resort to using the Mummy bell, to scare the fox away.

Children will easily identify with the different emotions displayed and will be encouraged to discuss different ways they may respond to the situation and solve the problem.

        Kids seem to be born with a love of books. It’s easy to nurture. 🙂

          It is. We just have to make sure every child has the opportunity to develop that love.

    This is the kind of book children love. They need to hear messages through animals.

    Sounds very cute. “The Mummy bell”–great name for it!

      It is, isn’t it? The rabbits actually have a bell they can ring if they need Mummy, but I think it works generically too.
