The illustrated childrens book The Fox Family (Fulton Books; 2020) by Merna Victor was inspired by the authors chance encounter with a red fox in her backyard. The fox then returned six weeks later with four kits and a second adult fox.
The story is about a fox family that began when a fox crossed my backyard, the author said, then kept circling my house (and) looking into windows. I noticed it did this several times over a few days. Then (it) disappeared. I kept looking for it.
A few weeks later, I saw two adult foxes pass through my yard with four baby foxes (kits) between them.
The Fox Family tells the story of Sidney and Lavinia Fox, soon-to-be parents searching for a new home. The Foxes had moved many hundreds of miles from their previous rural home to an urban setting. They find a new home in a fallen tree hollow formerly occupied by the Badger Family.
Meanwhile, Sidney observes the behavior of their human neighbors. He wants to understand the cultural differences between his family and the human families because he wants his family to settle well in their new home.
What insights could Sidney Fox get from observing the humans? Read all about it in The Fox Family by Merna Victor. Order a copy today on Amazon and Barnes & Noble.
Merna Victor will be signing copies of her book The Fox Family on June 26, 2022, 3:45 PM to 4:45 PM Eastern Time at booth 1147 hosted by self-publishing and book marketing company ReadersMagnet for the 2022 American Library Association (ALA) Annual Conference & Exhibition.

Growing up in this community, I know there is a need for additional retail options, but I wanted to go about it in a particular way. Second Chance Boutique not only offers a retail option for our community members, but also provides a convenient resell option for their clothing as well,” says Ryann Pagels. “I’m also looking forward to being able to give back to the community with a free-will donation rack.” Any items that are not sold will be put on the rack, and the money will be given to that month’s selected local charity. Mike and Ryann Pagels acquired the historic property located at 1216 J Street in Tekamah in July of 2017. In June of 2018, Pagels’ opened M&R’s Nightly Rentals, which transformed three existing apartments within the brick building into extended stay condo style accommodations. Now, they have revitalized the front area of the building, making it into Second Chance Boutique. “Continuing to revitalize this building, and being able to convert it into something that we hope the community can use and enjoy has been an adventure. I was blown away at the history of this place,” said Mike Pagels. Built in 1916, the structure began as the Lyric Theatre. It has since been the home to Stouts, law offices, medical clinic, and most recently M&R’s Nightly Rentals and Second Chance Boutique. Second Chance Boutique’s first day of operations was February 13, 2021, with standard business hours being Tuesday’s and Thursday’s for consignment only, and open for shopping Wednesday afternoons and Saturdays. A grand opening will be celebrated over Memorial Day weekend, where visitors can expect to see prize drawings, sales and more. About Second Chance BoutiqueWhen banks say no we say yes.
