Argyle Fox, with his signature style, wants to play outside on a springtime day, but the wind is wreaking havoc with his fun and games. As soon as he builds a card tower, climbs into a giant spider web, or takes up his pirate sword, here comes the wind: Woosh!

Mama Fox tells grumpy Argyle that if he thinks long enough, he will come up with something to do. Following his mother’s suggestion and inspired by her knitting, he works all the pieces of his day together and creates the perfect solution.

The story of Argyle teaches that failure is often a path to success and celebrates perseverance, creative thinking, and an old-fashioned springtime activity.

A picture book with comic book style illustrations, Defenders of the Family takes Family: A Proclamation to the World and breaks it into understandable verse for even the youngest reader. We used the hardback as a read aloud to reinforce principles such as enjoying activities together, work as a family, strong marriage and the eternal nature of gender. The target audience are children of the LDS faith, but all readers would enjoy the vibrant colors and timely message.
