There is a plethora of literature in this world, but do we ever go back to read what made us take on this journey to read such and such? Where did we all start from? Well, in this case, I mostly started from the remarkable Bob's Books. From a young and tender age, I was reading these books with great amusement. 👶🏻✨ As time passed and as I aged, this book collection only became a memory. I have been mistaken! Now that I had this book series come back to the picture and re-read them I just realized how much I have to thank this book series for where I am now. From writing stories, poems, and editorials, all the way to essays that helped me to get sensational grades. 🎓🎉 These books contain not only the literature but also the illustrations. The ravishing sketches that hold so much simplicity have inspired me and dozens of others to indulge in the world of art. 🖼️🎨 Almost as if I am taken for granted. I realized that I should be more thankful for these amazing pieces of literature and breathtaking illustrations. I now ponder the restless thought, "If it had not been for these books, what would be my current situation?" 😢❤️
Though like I stated that time has aged me. My great liking for these books has not. These books opened my heart yet again with their unique yet perplexing plethora of eye-catching literature. Alas, I feel as if this is only a slight bit of what I have to say about these books. But what there is to come about the one book in this series is crucially important. Speak less as I shall now verbalize these thoughts of the book, Sox The Fox. 🦊🧦
I have never seen such an immaculate book in my life before. The perfection in it made tears come out of my eyes. It evoked such strong emotions and as I read it I was flooded with nostalgia for my young days. It truly even changed my life once again, my life is forever to become different because of the brilliance in this simple yet astounding book. The way such a simple worded book has changed my life in countless ways still astounds me. It touched the deepest part of my soul and reminded me that such terrific things still exist in this world.🌍I feel as if something in my heart has once again been reopened. Like I feel like jumping around with joy. 🦘💗 As if there has been a spark of energy that has touched all my cells and I am being brought back to life. So much to describe how I am feeling that not all words in the English language can even describe what it is like. So take this German saying: “"Es ist, als ob der Himmel meine Brust mit Sternenlicht gefüllt hat, funkelnd und ungestüm, als ob ein Frühlingsregen das Herz in einem Tanz aus goldenen Tropfen geweckt hat. Die Welt singt in Farben, die noch nie ein Auge sah, und das Leben fließt wie ein neugeborener Fluss durch meine Adern. Ein unsichtbarer Wind hebt mich empor, ein Kuss des Universums, der selbst die dunkelsten Winkel meiner Seele zum Strahlen bringt."” 💗🥹💯⚠️
This book has brought such an important moral to the limelight. Always warn your friends when the wind of harm is about to blow. As Sox, The Fox approaches the Hen to make a sneaky and startling harmful surprise. Thankfully, The Hen notices what is about to take place and sends a warning to his close ones. This causes the chain reaction of each friend to warn the next one. 🐔🐀🐈🐖🐕 They all make a dash to safety in time. Thus all thanks to the waring of the Hen. If it had not been for the Hen what would have become of them? Due to the heroic actions of the Hen saving her friends' lives, she has forgotten about saving her own! 😱⚠️ Imagine that! Caring so much for your loved ones that you forget about yourself. YOUR OWN LIFE. 😭😭😭 Are we that caring anymore to be that worried about others before ourselves? Take that as a lesson now. There is just so much to gather up in this book that it hurts me that I can't put them all together. So it is certainly an event that we should mourn. Sometimes it can be the smallest thing that can fill the hole in your heart, and when you REALLY ponder over it, you realize how much it means to you. Now, imagine how much this book means to me. Every quark that is in this omniverse is not equivalent to the amount of happiness that I feel right now because of this book. Even on the darkest days, it will be my sunshine. ☀️ A ray of light to guide me on my path. So wholesome, I can't. When the sun rose this morning, I was ever so happy to live another day. Another day where I can go back and reread this book to get the ecstasy at its fill again. 😪❤️
Favorite Part: The preeminent moment in this marvelous piece of literature was the segment in the book when the rat, cat, pig, and dog informed the hen of the fox. Thus, the hen ran off and saved himself from the hands of harm.
Favorite Quote: "Run, Hen! Run!"

The fox isn't very sneaky but it was pretty sad! I don't know how to say this but...there was a LOT of animals in it! Puff would like this book! So don't mind!
