Rosie's Walk

Have any of you ever seen the book Rosie's Walk?  If you haven't you really should.  I actually picked up this copy at a thrift store for .50!!  It's in perfect new condition and when I saw the cover I knew I had to look inside.  The illustrations are beautiful and the story is fantastic.  It's all about a fox trying to catch a chicken but fate seems to get in the way and one thing after another happens to him.  Oddly enough I actually bought this book for me, not the kids.  I just know what my boys will do to it and I want to keep it nice so I can look at it forever.  Maybe it'll be one of those books that I take out only to read to them, not for them to read to themselves.  (aka destroying)
