The Snow Ghost Pageturner Adventures with Zack

Enjoy this excerpt of the final story from Scary Stories for Young Foxes.

Mia and Uly try to survive the harsh winter. They discover a den with a litter of five fox kits without a mother. Uly goes out to search for food for the kits and themselves, while Mia looks after them. She names them after her siblings, and one to Uly's likeness.

When Uly finds food, he encounters his father, Mr. Scratch, who has survived the bats in the Lilac Kingdom, and is out for revenge on Uly and Mia. Two of the kits gets taken by a mysterious white creature with black, gooey eyes. It turns out to be one of Mia's brothers who has the yellow disease.
 
Uly and Mr. Scratch have their final confrontation on a loose ice block, rocking and spinning down a rushing river with one of the stolen kits in the center if it all.
