"Let's put on a play!" Fox says. Dexter plays the mummy, Carmen is the princess, and Fox is the hero, of course—but that's not what makes him a star! Whether putting on a play, making a film for Grannie, or going to a magic show, Fox struts in the spotlight, with hilarious results.

James Marshall is a favourite illustrator who has written many, many children's picture and easy-to-read books. This is a fun easy-reader for the beginning reader divided into three separate short stories. Each features Fox as the main character and while the stories are not related they do carry a theme of the performing arts. "Fox on Film" has fox using his video recorder to make movies; "Flying Fox" has Fox watching and participating in a magic show and finally "Fox on Stage" has Fox and friends preparing, and putting on a play for the neighbourhood.
I'm a teacher and it's tough to find low level books that have a good story, characters with distinct personalities, inferential pictures and droll humor. I love the entire Fox series as they are great for teaching and the kids really like them.
James Marshall is skilled at writing books to hook low level readers. I use these books in the classroom to get even the most reluctant of readers to devour these stories. If only there were more!!
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!
