This is a hilarious story about Fox's experience at various jobs. His mother insists that he get a job to pay for a new bike since [money doesn't grow on trees]. This early chapter book details Fox's job at the shoe store & amusement park--to name a few. Let's just say he has a hard time keeping a job! My son and I laughed throughout this story. The humor made this read enjoyable for my reluctant reader. May I also suggest 'three up a tree' & ' four by the shore' by the same author. These books are all hilariously good reads!
I read this book with my son when he was about 7 or so, and he is now 30! This book has staying power. When we got to the part about the pizza/mice mixup, both son and I were crying, we were laughing so hard. This is a truly snort worthy laugh fest. I have a copy ready for my grandson.
I never tired of reading the Fox stories with my sons. They're a great laugh, even for parents. So many easy-to-reads are a bit boring, but these are inventive.
I remember loving the "fox books" when I was younger and now my 5- and 3-year olds love them too. They're clever and cute and easy-to-read, with silliness that my kids can pick up on. Plus my 5 year-old can sound out most of the words. Definitely worth picking up.
Bought the whole set when one of my 2nd graders fell in love with them. We were so sad to look up the author to find he had died years ago. We wanted to write and thank him for these books!
These books are very well written and funny for the child and the adult. The books in this series belong on the shelf with your classics.
