"Mollie Eckelberry is an author of pure genious. She has a matter-of-fact tone and exposes the delights and trials of the life of an equestrienne, and creates a beautiful deep glance into a different life than your own that is suitable for both young and old." Criss Ittermann, Eclectic Tech, LLC

Sample Text

As the cubs grow they copy their parents, preparing themselves to survive when they are grown. One of the things they learn is to leap high into the air and come down hard on the ground with their front paws. This is how they make grasshoppers and field mice jump out of the grass so they can catch and eat them.

Testimonials

"Your Foxes of Kirby Hill is just delightful and I will treasure having it and sharing it. The drawings are so true to nature and the whole story is lovely, except for the sad ending which breaks my heart. Perhaps your book will help to make people think more about our important environment and the things that really make our lives worth living.
"Thank you for making a difference!! And for such a beautiful book."
