This book series has been great for my son's early reading. He fell in love with the antics of Fox and his friends. The stories have good morals, but be sure to read the reviews. There is at least one book that shows Fox smoking (though he gets sick) which might not be what you want.Fox at School is one of the good ones of this series.
I had first read "Fox on Wheels" in an old basal series years ago (1980s) and the students (1st-3rd) who were reading on that level enjoyed it. When I saw that there were more- I bought several sets for reading group use. It may be an "oldy" but it is well written (not slapstick or ridiculous or gross) and the students can relate to the animal characters who have the same universal problems and funny times that kids experience. That will never go out of style!
As usual with the books of James Marshall, the combinations of the words and the silly pictures make this a very funny book. Fox lose his big part in the class play, is afraid to go down a slide for a fire drill, and is left in charge of the class by Miss Moon.
My daughter is a new reader and she loves this book and the other fox books. I wish the manufacturer would have wrapped my books in plastic because my package was left in the rain and two of my books were damaged :(
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!
The Fox series is so much fun. The characters are great. I typically read it out loud first then my 7 year old niece reads it back. The pictures are colorful and the font clear and large.
My family loves this series. It is a little racy at times, but my daughter enjoys fox making mistakes and learning from them.
