description: This is the story of a red fox, of a boy and a dog who hunted him, and of the wilderness where it happened.Because of the odd-shaped white patch on his chest that gave him his name, and the freak six toes on his front feet, Star was a marked fox from his youngest days. And because of his growing wisdom and cunning in escaping traps and dogs, he also became known as a "haunt" fox—an elusive prize eagerly sought by every hunter in the valley. Evading pursuit was a game Star enjoyed as much as did the hounds that trailed him.Young Jack Crowley and his foxhound, Thunder, were the youngest hunters on the "haunt" fox's trail. The climax makes a surprising ending to one of the best wild animal stories Jim Kjelgaard has ever written.
