We love Fox books. Fox doesn't always have a very good attitude when his mom tells him to do something, but his mom just gives him one of her looks and he obeys! Sometimes, as my 1st grader reads these books, I point out how Fox was disrespectful to his mom initially, and we talk about how he should be respectful and obey. Overall, though, the Fox series is a good one. We've read each book dozens of times!
That basically sums up all these books. They are absolute classics! I love everything about every single one of these books- I read them growing up and nearly cried as a teenager when they removed them from my local library. No matter what age you are you can enjoy these fantastic books. James Marshall has turned out nothing but classic, wonderful and fun books. If you've never read them, you're missing out on your childhood, and that goes for his George and Martha books too! Get one TODAY!
Okay so this is going to a giddy review. After YEARS of searching, I FINALLY, FINALLY found these books.I didn't remember the author name, only the local library where I absolutely devoured these as a wee little thing. For some reason these books just popped out in my brain, and I loved every single installment.For old times sake, I think I'm going to have to buy them and re live my toddler years.
Are you ready to rock? "Fox Be Nimble" is a toe-tappin', finger-snappin' book. Author James Marshall has written a great book about a guitar-playing fox. Fox loves to play rock star. So, come and be his fan and read his story. It will be music to your ears. Fox only has one person in his audience, his sister, Louise. He has to stop playing music to babysit the Bear's family. He always talks back to his mom. After Fox went to Bear's family, he goes to pracice with the band and finally finds something that he is good at. So, find out, read and keep on rocking!
Fox introduces small children to the delightful world of humor and irony in books. What a welcome relief from the drills on simple words that characterize so many early readers. With the simplest of words, Marshall conveys sibling rivalry, naughtiness, and even phobias with a sweet chuckle understandable to early readers. Fox was a constant favorite with both my girls and I only wish more children could go along on his misadventures.
