Tuula Pere has taken some challenging topics and presented them so that children can follow along and understand actions have consequences.

Children’s author Tuula Pere has written yet another fantastic and meaningful children’s book. This story teaches kids about the value of being honest and how being untruthful will only cause more considerable trouble in the end.

I loved the artwork done by Andrea Alemanno, the seaside was beautiful, and the characters really came to life. The colorful images will draw in children and the detailed work will keep them engaged throughout the story.

Francis is not pure evil. He is a lot of us at our worst. We all have dreams, hopes, and ambitions. However, some people (like Francis) let those things get out of hand and let their egos grow out of control.

Time and time again, Tuula Pere wows us with her incredibly deep, complex, and intricate children's books—ones that subvert expectations and break the mold of what a children's book can and can't be. She is that great of an author.

It's at that point that we noticed how much more detailed this book was in comparison to the other two. The illustrations by Andrea Alemanno are, once again, outstanding! In fact, they're even better than usual.

The Fox’s Palace by Tuula Pere is wonderfully written with an incredible message that will encourage children's good behavior. I loved that the theme covered the importance of hard work and the message of how crime does not pay.

I have read Pere's work before, specifically Welcome Home, Pearl, and I am pleased to see that she continues to tell engaging stories that encourage young readers to explore profound themes.

The colorful images by Andrea Alemanno beautifully complement the text.
