Evie is so excited to spend her Christmas holiday in Lapland – they’re going to visit Santa, go on a reindeer sleigh ride and watch the Northern Lights. She’s even dreamed about seeing her favourite animal – the arctic fox. Evie’s parents say this is unlikely, though, as hunting has left the species endangered. But when she hears a strange whining noise in the middle of the night, she follows the sounds and discovers a little arctic fox caught in a trap. Can Evie rescue him in time?

The eerie sound was first heard in March of 1848 at the home of the Fox family in Hydesville, New York. The family’s two daughters, Kate and Maggie, soon discovered that they could communicate with the spirit that was making these uncanny noises; he told them he had been a traveling peddler who had been murdered. This strange incident, and the ones that followed, generated a media frenzy beyond anything the Fox sisters could have imagined.

Fox habitat ranges from the Arctic to the tropics. The fox has long since conquered our cities and the hearts of many people. From the notorious chicken thief, he has become a popular figure and the heroic animal of many children's books. If you want to see foxes, you must be lucky and get up early. And be as quiet as possible.
