Leila and the Blue Fox takes readers on two journeys. One follows 12-year-old Leila as she travels from the UK to visit her mother, a climate scientist working in Norway. The other tracks an Arctic fox named Miso, who is driven by her instincts to take a journey into the unknown. Leila hasn’t seen her mother since her family left war-torn Syria six years ago. She believes that her mother loves her job more than her. As a result, they face an emotional struggle to solve the conflict between them.
