Friendship on Ooko’s own terms

Ooko is a fox who has the usual fox essentials—a stick, a leaf and a rock—but wants a companion to play with. Seeing other foxes with their human friends, he tries to fit in, setting up a story about the pull between belonging and being yourself. His search leads to a Debbie of his own, though their meeting doesn’t unfold as he imagined. The premise gives the book’s friendship theme a playful twist while keeping Ooko’s wish for companionship at the heart of the story.

Good fit for readers who enjoy

  • Children ages 4–8 interested in stories about friendship.
  • Families seeking a picture book about belonging and being true to oneself.

Book overview

Ooko has everything a fox could want: a stick, a leaf and a rock. Well, almost everything . . . Ooko wants someone to play with too! The foxes in town always seem to be playing with their two-legged friends, the Debbies. Maybe if he tries to look like the other foxes, one of the Debbies will play with him too. But when Ooko finally finds his very own Debbie, things don't turn out quite as he had expected!
A quirky, funny, charmingly illustrated story about finding friendship and being true to yourself.
