A tale of adventure. The hero: a tiny fox, born last of her litter. "I've never heard of a ninth fox," says the exhausted mother the night the ninth fox is born. The ninth fox is blamed for her family's misfortune. Bad luck becomes a curse, leads to a quest, and the quest begins a journey. The fox embarks upon a journey to a faraway land--an island of tall trees instead of city buildings. An island where there are no foxes. No foxes, but there are fairies. Fairies, dogs--some friendly, some not... danger, kindness, hope, and apples.
