Such a cute puzzle. It’s from the same company that made the Tiger one, and honestly I would have worn gloves if this was that large. They hurt my skin. As it was, even though I did this puzzle pretty much in one sitting, I got up to wash my hands three times. The border was the hardest part, I enjoyed all the fur texture bits. The pieces are huge. Wasn’t kidding when it says on the box “poster size.” It completely filled my puzzle board, just within the edge on top and bottom. I love the moment when put in the final piece, and suddenly it doesn’t look so much like a puzzle anymore, but just an enlarged photograph, the piece edges fading from notice.
I do think it’s absurd that the flowers hiding the fox’s paws are so tiny. Dandelions and daisies should be much bigger in proportion to a young fox- even if this was an adult fox they’re way too small.
