Peter hat den Fuchswelpen Pax vor dem sicheren Tod gerettet und aufgezogen - seitdem sind die beiden unzertrennlich. Peter und Pax verstehen sich ohne Worte, und nur zusammen fühlen sie sich ganz. Aber dann kommt der Krieg und reißt die beiden auseinander. Zwischen ihnen liegen Hunderte von Kilometern und warten tausend Gefahren, doch von ihrer Sehnsucht getrieben, kennen die beiden nur einen Gedanken: den anderen wiederzufinden...
Sara Pennypacker und Jon Klassen haben eine berührend-poetische Freundschaftsgeschichte geschaffen, die gleichzeitig ein Plädoyer für Menschlichkeit in Zeiten des Krieges ist.
Now available in paperback! The bestselling novel is a poignant and timeless tale of love and loyalty between a boy and his fox set during wartime. 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.

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. . . .
