Look insideFantastic Mr Fox
Every time Mr Fox steals a chicken to feed his hungry family, Boggis, Bunce and Bean go wild with rage! These selfish, greedy farmers rule the whole valley, and have no kindness to spare for anyone. So when they declare war on Mr Fox, they mean business. They get their shotguns ready and lie in wait outside his hole. They don’t care what it takes: they’ll shoot, starve or dig him out. But is our crafty hero Mr Fox scared of these big bullies? No! He has his own fantastic plan…
- An inspiring treat for confident younger readers
- Mr Fox is one of Dahl’s most charismatic heroes
- His flamboyant adventures are a laugh a minute
- Quentin Blake’s artwork brings him to vivid life

I loved this book! I liked when I found out what the three naughty farmers looked like. I liked the fat one the best, his name is Boggis there was Bunce and Bean too. I found the little foxes cute. My favourite bit was when fantastic Mr fox found all the starving animals and led them to a feast at his house.
