Pax, Journey Home

By Sara Pennypacker & Jon Klassen
Pax, Journey Home by Sara Pennypacker & Jon Klassen digital book - Fable

Publisher Description

From award-winning author Sara Pennypacker comes the long-awaited sequel to Pax; this is a gorgeously crafted, utterly compelling novel about chosen families and the healing power of love. A New York Times bestseller!

It’s been a year since Peter and his pet fox, Pax, have seen each other. Once inseparable, they now lead very different lives.

Pax and his mate, Bristle, have welcomed a litter of kits they must protect in a dangerous world. Meanwhile Peter—newly orphaned after the war, racked with guilt and loneliness—leaves his adopted home with Vola to join the Water Warriors, a group of people determined to heal the land from the scars of the war.

When one of Pax's kits falls desperately ill, he turns to the one human he knows he can trust. And no matter how hard Peter tries to harden his broken heart, love keeps finding a way in. Now both boy and fox find themselves on journeys toward home, healing—and each other, once again.

As he did for Pax, Jon Klassen, New York Times bestseller, Caldecott medalist, and two-time Caldecott Honoree, has created stunning jacket and interior illustrations.

Pax, Journey Home Reviews

4.0
“This made me cry... a lot of times. Peter, thank GOODNESS, got his head out of his rear near the end but holy moly he had me going there for a moment. I was about to be so mad. I'm so proud of him though: he figured out how to let people help him, finally. I'm so heartbroken for Pax's family losing their girl, but I just love that Pax knew his boy well enough to know he would never harm the baby vixen - even as Peter readied to do just that. The entire last third or so of the book was too stressful for me, but again I'll say that it is very classic children's book in the vein of Winn-Dixie. Both Pax books are so good, and now I want another sequel. 👉👈”
“I enjoyed the first in the Duology. I loved how the story concluded.”
