This zoology title for children, filled with beautiful photos and factual life science text, examines the mammal's anatomy, camouflage abilities, feeding habits, life cycle, and kit care. Its habitat is described, too. A folktale from Finland discusses the creation of "fox fires," known today as the Aurora Borealis or the Northern Lights.
