Argyle Fox

Letourneau, M. (2017). Argyle Fox. Indianapolis: Tanglewood. 32 pages, Pre-K--2nd Grade, Picture Book, ISBN # 9781939100092.

This book is about a little fox who is struggling to find something fun to do on a windy day. He tries many different activities and meets many other animals, but that quickly gets ruined by the wind that either blows his fun and games away or destroys it. He then gives up and tells his mother that there is nothing to do on a windy day, but she encourages him to keep thinking and trying. He then comes up with the perfect thing to do on a windy day, he builds a kite and goes out to fly it in the wind.

I really enjoyed this book, it has a great story with good illustrations. This book is a good uplifting book for students. I think the underlying concept that is being taught throughout the book is to never give up and to always persevere. The fox never gave up when he kept trying different activities to do during the windy day. He continued to try different things until finally he found the perfect activity. It also teaches students to be creative and think for themselves.
