The Ranger
La description
A story of an unlikely friendship between a young girl named Annie and a fox whom she saves. Nancy Vo’s spare text and atmospheric illustrations imbue these stories with a subtle magic that recalls classic morality fables such as the lion and the mouse—while also upending many of the typical tropes of the Western genre. The Ranger is the second stand-alone story in Nancy Vo’s Crow Stories Trilogy, following 2018’s The Outlaw (“Bewitching”—New York Times).
