Fox wants to practise to be a rock star, but his mum wants him to babysit for Mrs Ling's children. Fox thinks he can handle them, but it's too much for him when they get hold of a big bunch of balloons. This is one of a series of illustrated early-reading books with large print.

In three separate episodes Fox wants to play with his friends, but duty, in one form or another, always interferes.

Pretentiousness is the engine oil of culture; the essential lubricant in the development of all arts, high, low, or middle.

Fox and his friends have a different adventure every day of the week.

What does it mean to be Mi’kmaq? And if Swift Fox can’t find the answer, will she ever feel like part of her family? When Swift Fox’s father picks her up to go visit her aunties, uncles, and cousins, her belly is already full of butterflies. And when he tells her that today is the day that she’ll learn how to be Mi’kmaq, the butterflies grow even bigger. Though her father reassures her that Mi’kmaq is who she is from her eyes to her toes, Swift Fox doesn’t understand what that means. Her family welcomes her with smiles and hugs, but when it’s time to smudge and everyone else knows how, Swift Fox feels even more like she doesn’t belong. Then she meets her cousin Sully and realizes that she’s not the only one who’s unsure—and she may even be the one to teach him something about what being Mi’kmaq means. Based on the author’s own experience, with striking illustrations by Maya McKibbin, Swift Fox All Along is a poignant story about identity and belonging that is at once personal and universally resonant.
