Deer Foxes

Luke Pearson's Hilda graphic novels are charming. The most charming part of all, though, is the deer fox Twig.

My daughter was so enraptured by Twig that she decided we have three imaginary deer foxes of our own: Mossy, Pine Needle and Acorn.

Mossy is sweet and slightly vain. Pine Needle is calm and loving. Acorn (who is technically my deer fox) is bouncy and risk taking. The three deer foxes came into their own when we went to Yosemite and they accompanied us on all our hikes.

Over the summer we kept a journal, which included our trip to Yosemite. Being imaginary, we have no pictures of the deer foxes so I was convinced to draw them instead.

So with apologies to Luke Pearson, my rendition of Acorn:
