From the Caldecott Honor winner and two-time Geisel-winning author of Mel Fell, Fox the Tiger, and Fox at Night, Corey R. Tabor!
Fun-loving, mischievous Fox from Fox and the Jumping Contest is back in this charming and hilarious tale of friendship, adventureand snacks.
Its the day of the animals annual bike ride, and Fox is not excited. Every year its the same old, same old.
Fox wants adventure.
He wants action-adventure.
He wants danger-action-adventure!
(And snacks too, of course.)
So he secretly schemes to make this the most unforgettable trip everand his friends are coming along, whether they want to or not!
Tabor creates riotously lively, digitally assembled scenes with pencils, watercolor, and ink to accompany a satisfying, comical tale. A fun, free-wheeling romp. Kirkus Reviews The spirit of camaraderie is high in this energetic, entertaining tale. ALA Booklist Sly Fox makes both an entertaining and sympathetic protagonist, and the text is clever and amusingly dry, especially set against the comical going-ons in the illustrations. Viewers will happily double back to find the Easter egg jokes. Bulletin of the Center for Childrens Books
