Wonderful message, beautiful illustrations

I just bought this book as a 'new baby' gift for a friend. It is a nice hardcover book that will be a nice addition to any collection/ Wonderful repeating message about how special a young animal, person, etc. is to its parents. A nice message and a good gift, because it's unlikely that everyone else knows about this book.

small error

As a children's library clerk, I see many such books in the course of my work. This is a lovely picture book; however, one thing bothers me: the baby fox is repeatedly referred to, both in the blurb and the actual text, as a 'fox cub'. Baby foxes are not cubs. They are kits. I hope this will be corrected in later editions.
