LOOKING AT THE WORLD OF BOOK PRODUCTION
FOXES... THEY’RE SMELLY THIEVES! The ‘Knitmore Farm’ series of books presents readers with a simple story, funny cartoons and a thought provoking overall message. In this particular book the author sets out to encourage children and adults to question sectarian, ill-informed and biased thinking. Mutual respect and practical action is promoted in a child-friendly way. You may be surprised to hear that the inspiration behind this book was the Bible story about the ‘Good Samaritan’ who helped his ‘perceived enemy’ - the Jew. Ask the average child what it’s about and they might say - “It’s about a young fox who gets hit by a car and is helped by some farm animals.”
