출판사 설명
New York Times Bestseller * National Book Award Longlist
From bestselling and award-winning author Sara Pennypacker comes a beautifully wrought, utterly compelling novel about the powerful relationship between a boy and his fox. Pax is destined to become a classic, beloved for generations to come.
Pax and Peter have been inseparable ever since Peter rescued him as a kit. But one day, the unimaginable happens: Peter's dad enlists in the military and makes him return the fox to the wild.
At his grandfather's house, three hundred miles away from home, Peter knows he isn't where he should be—with Pax. He strikes out on his own despite the encroaching war, spurred by love, loyalty, and grief, to be reunited with his fox.
Meanwhile Pax, steadfastly waiting for his boy, embarks on adventures and discoveries of his own. . . .
Pax is a wonderful choice for independent reading, sharing in the classroom, homeschooling, and book groups.
Plus, don't miss Pax, Journey Home, the sequel to the award-winning and modern classic Pax.

Great read!
The text is well-structured and easy to understand. I would have liked a more extensive and explanatory conclusion, especially concerning the Peter’s relationship with his father. Overall, it is an enjoyable read.
I love this book
I like the Peter and pax are both best friends and I don’t like that it doesn’t have captions.
Not for Kids
This is a story of devotion, sacrifice, loss and even war. The cover art and summary makes it sound like it would be for youngsters - it isn’t . Like Water Ship Down, because it is about an animal it is misleading who the audience should be....
