Delightful. I fell in, love with these friends.

Tiny Fox is content in his valley home under the apple tree until the day Great Boar shows up. What? You mean I must share my things? This is hard at first after all he’s been the only child his whole life, ,well so far. It doesn’t take Fox long to realize a friend makes life more fun.

Tiny Fox and Great Boar is a short graphic novel aimed at young and beginning readers. This is actually two books in one with the first about Tiny Fox agonizing over every new change. Great Boar entering his neat little works is a disruption, but soon enough he is sure doesn’t want live his life without a friend's help ; should he cross the road, pick a direction, or stay under the apple tree? Oh what monumental problems! . But it goes to show how having a friend can help one through such issues.

The next book within the same book is entitled Together where they find a scarf as the seasons begin to change. This one is just as charming as the first instalment.

I look forward to more adventures of Tiny Fox and Great Boar just as I have enjoyed Frog and Toad by Lobel for years and years.

Something that I can surely say is - it's gripping! I did not keep this down until I finished the whole story. Read it out to my niece too & she loves the tiny fox.

Highlights
1. A graphic book
2. The fox is cute
3. The flow of the story is so natural
4. Everyone needs a friend like a boar 🐗 who motivates you & pushes you out of your comfort zone
5. You don't come across such unusual stories often

Lowlights
1. Not many details around how did they manage the whole winter without food
2. What was the role of that scarf?

Tiny Fox is leery when Great Boar shows up and settles under the apple tree, forcing Tiny Fox to share his space, food, and activities. Slowly, Tiny Fox learns the importance of friendship and having someone to adventure with as he and Great Boar explore new areas.

First off, I really like the illustrations. They’re colorful and unique. The book trails through different seasons with a short story for each. The plots are a bit lackluster in my opinion, but still likely to be enjoyable to children. I doubt this is something I would read more than once, but it was nice for one read.

Clever storytelling through beautiful images. I read this book with my four year old daughter and we both really enjoyed it. It's a relatively simple tale which leaves it to the reader to interpret its lessons. I think this is a really valuable reading experience for young readers.

The layout is like a comic strip which helps young readers recognise the progression of the narrative. There are many plot points which are lost if the reader skips discussion of the pictures so it actively encourages skills of interpretation.

The facial expressions of the two central characters are a key element of this developing children's sense of empathy and being able to read the feelings of others.

A warm and heartfelt book which will prove a valuable shared reading experience for both the reader and the child.

I loved this delightful and beautifully illustrated story of friendship and more. Tiny Fox lives under an Apple tree and although alone he is quite happy. One day a Great Boar arrives and makes himself at home under the tree. Tiny Fox doesn’t know what to think of this as he likes his solitude. When Great Boar vanishes one day, Fox realises how much he misses him and is happy when he returns.
The book also follows the seasons and how with a little help they can look out for each other, make choices together and overcome fears.
It really is a lovely story.

What gorgeous watercolour illustrations!

The story of the Tiny Fox and the Great Boar is not only about friendship. Sometimes we are forced to leave our comfort zone by external circumstances. Other times, even though it would be easier and safer to follow our daily routine, it's worth choosing the road less traveled. Tiny Fox and Great Boar can show a shy kid that amazing experiences await them if they are brave enough to explore new things.

A cute story with stunning artwork.

Many thanks to NetGalley and OniPress for an Advance Reading Copy.

I enjoyed this little book about the friendship between a fox and a boar. Despite being a quick read, it's filled with meaningful lessons about strength in numbers, not knowing a good thing until it's gone, the importance of cohesion, and overcoming challenges together.

The watercolour-style artwork is beautiful as well.

Cute and fun! I like the art very much and the friendship in it was adorable! Great picture book that I would recommend!

The watercolor art in this book is extremely gorgeous and cute - the characters have clear personalities and the environments are lush and feel like a well contained universe. The story abotu friendship and teamwrk and moving across boundaries is nice as well.

A sweet tale of friendship and overcoming your fears, told with lovely illustrations that have a simple but warm quality to them,
