Idealistic Fox 8's ability to communicate in "Yuman" cannot save his pack when their den and food supply are destroyed to build a mall, so he writes a letter asking for an explanation of human's cruelty.

Fox 8 has always been the daydreamer in his pack. He learns to speak "Yuman" by hiding in the bushes outside a house and listening to children's bedtime stories. When the building of a new shopping mall cuts off the pack's food supply, Fox 8 begins a harrowing quest to save the pack. -- adapted from jacket
