The North Forest is in an uproar as the food chain has been usurped and it is virtually every animal and bird for himself as the Badlands Gang, a bunch of rodents and evil fowls of the air, has taken over the woods and the remnants of the Woodlands Council gathers its allies as they prepare for the final showdown of the inhabitants of the woodlands as seen thru the eyes of a fox cub named Foster.
Foster Fox A 10 000 Lakes Tale The 10 000 Lakes Tales 1 Nathaniel Leonard
Nature is thrown into chaos. A flood has disrupted a balance that was already tenuous, and strange alliances have been formed among the woodland creatures. A small, orphaned fox is in the center of it all, one whose fate and destiny is a major issue among the denizens of the forest.In the midst of their heated controversy, in jumps a lone wolf, one whose history is clouded in mystery. Frenzy erupts, and sides are chosen, for everyone feels that, with the arrival of this outcast, a shift of power will be inevitable.
Moose sides with Wolf and Bobcat, Deer sides with Coyote, and the birds of the sky are busy spreading gossip to create hard feelings among all concerned. A battle for supremacy is on the brink of starting, when suddenly a new party of animals joins the fray: a strange wolf/coyote mix, wild and desperately cruel. In the way of all despots who truly believe they have won the day before they've even started, the "jackals" (as they are known) inform all of the dark history of the wolf and his relationship to themselves. But instead of joining the jackals against the wolf, all of the animals, to a creature, band against them to rid their woods of these horrible hybrids.
Even with so many against so few, the woodland natives are losing ground. It isn't until the fox cub invokes the Great Spirit that the battle is finally done, and balance returns to the forest. The creatures learn that they really do not want to fight against each other, and promise to live in peace all of their days.
This was a great story, geared toward the middle-school grades. Certainly the book was a diamond in the rough. The publishers state at the very beginning that they were leaving the story unedited, at the author's request. There are times when the story jumps without warning to another scene, and maybe in places it isn't clear what creature is talking. But, in this case, somehow it works.
It was written in a way that made me think of tribal stories told around a campfire; one that had a moral behind the fable. In reading it, I could almost feel the warmth of the fire on my face and the cold at my back. The elder is speaking, telling the tale, and I can hear the flames crackling and see the sparks as they rise into the night. The tale weaves its way up with the smoke, and without any effort, the moral also weaves its way into my mind as the elder's voice mesmerizes his audience: Nature is a force that must be treated gently, or the imbalance will cause great chaos, not just among its creatures, but also among the humans who should be its stewards.

Foster Fox A 10 000 Lakes Tale The 10 000 Lakes Tales 1 Nathaniel Leonard Reviews
Nathaniel Leonard does a wonderful job creating a story similar to a modern day Ruyard Kipling tale.
Despite being only 27 pages, the story contains quite a bit of depth. Where on the surface it appears to be only about a young and lonely displaced fox, several sub-stories are brought into focus from the creation of the hyena clan to the bird populations plot to take over.
I would recommend this book as the perfect bed-time story for a child between the ages of 4 - 8. And I myself also feel that it'd make a wonderful have an hour cartoon.
THIS STORY HAD ME ENTERTAINED FROM THE FIRST PAGE. I LOVE THE WAY IT SHOWED THAT EVERY CREATURE UNDER THE SUN HAD A PLACE IN THERE FORREST WORLD. IT TEACHES YOU THE HISTORY OF THE ELDERS AND HOW THEY COME TO HAVE SO MUCH RESPECT FROM ALL OF THE CREATURES OF THE FORREST. IT WILL TEACH ABOUT THE RESPECT THAT OUR ELDERS EARNED AND DESERVE FROM ALL OF US,BECAUSE THEY MADE IT POSSIBLE FOR THE FOR THE ONES THAT CAME AFTER THEM TO LIVE IN THE FORREST IN PEACE. I LOVE THE WAY THE STORY FLOWED AND NEVER WAIVER FROM THE POINT OF THE STORY. WHAT I GOT FROM THIS STORY IT SHOWED HOW IMPORTANT EVERYONE IS AND HOW YOU HAVE MAKE A POINT TO SHOW THAT WE ALL NEED EACH OTHER TO SURVIVE IN THIS WORLD TOGETHER.CANT WAIT TO READ IT TO MY GRANDCHILDREN!
