Review:
Fox, Rabbit, Squirrel and Mouse are all worried--as Owl flies away towards the far off wood, he gets smaller and smaller. One by one they set off to rescue him and one by one they see each other shrinking. Will they disappear all together? Clever readers will soon work out what is happening in this witty look at the puzzle of perspective. Pat Hutchins' spare illustrations and large, simple text are perfect for young children. --Philippa Reece
