Four Famished Foxes and Fosdyke

by Pamela Duncan Edwards

Book Overview

One Fine Fox

Four famished foxes make fun of their brother Fosdyke, who feels fondly for fried figs, fennel, and French bread. Leaving him behind to fry and flamb?, they go foraging for fowl in a forbidden farmyard. Unfortunately, the foxes find the fowl forwarned. Foiled, they return to their den. Will they ever filch a fabulous farmyard feast? Or will they forgo fowl and finally admit that "a fox is a fox whatever the food"?

Customer Reviews

Love this book

This is a really fun book to read to my 6 yr old son. The pictures are fun to look at and it is amazing to see how many words starting with "F" she packed into each page. My son had a good time finding items and words starting with "F" in the book. Cute story, I highly recommend it.

What a great way to build vocabulary in your little one! One of the chief reasons to read to your child is to introduce that child to wonderful words that are not necessarily part of your speaking repertoire, and that your child would not hear frequently otherwise. Although you are going to LOVE Cole's imaginative illustrations, and Edwards' cute story, as well as the lovely alliterative rhythms, what you may appreciate most is that this book contains many words that your child may not yet be familiar with. Read Four Famished Foxes with Fosdyke a few times to your favorite child, and you will find that the fountain of fabulous words will spark new speech from your special little loved one.

Mr. Cole's Drawings are COOL

Mr Cole is not my teacher (I came to the school after he would have been my teacher), but he taught all of my friends and I have met him. I think this is a cool book and everyone should read it, no matter how old they are

Big laughs for little kids !!!

Mr. Cole is my science teacher. He's very funny and it shows in this book. Mrs. Edwards is my library teacher. This is a great book for anyone who wants to laugh and have a good time. Little kids will read it again and again! I did
