Qute Fox?!!

It's a beloved book,I'm sure,nobody can stop reading it! I loved it very much.But in the two first chapters,I was really bored but when I started reading the third chapter,I just couldn't put it down.This book was different from the other books.I've never read a book that the hero doeasn't want to become friend with his new family. Adam was a boy who had lost his mother about 3 years ago and his father were in Australlia with his new wife,Rubby. Adam went to Dark Family farm-house. They were 3 children,with their family. The boy who was the age Adam,was named Richard. One day the boys found a fox,and all their problem started from that day.They had to feed the fox but they didn't have enough money. They couldn't tell it to their dad because he had killed a female fox just last night.But this made them become friends, they talked eachother more and Adam behaved in a better manner from that time. At the end they brought the fox to their family. The rain would made the fox die if it still would asleep in the old bridge.They had trained him very much and he was smart.But Darks understood that they were wrong and he was a dog! The boys kept him home forever.Their dad found a good way for his job not to get bankrapted.They started farming again,with a rich capitalist man.And Adam decided to be Adam Dark forever,no more Adam Hewitt!
