Book 1 · Ages 4–7
My Little Piece of America
Sam is a young fox with a yellow pocket and teal shoes. Grandpa raises the flag with him. Maya, Ben, and Jordan are his friends. Jordan uses a wheelchair and says what will work for him.
They share eggs and berries, wait while the road is repaired, and help a new neighbor. At the library Sam pulls a Bible off the shelf, and he and Jordan take turns reading. A steep picnic path will not work, so they tell the grown-ups about the shady grove. The grown-ups listen, and the grown-ups vote. On the Fourth of July the town parades, shares food, and watches the fireworks from far away, with Sam’s ears covered. At the end, the same town is still there, and they walk home.
