About the Author
James Marshall was one of the most prolific and successful author/illustrators of children's books. He was best known for his series on the mischievous exploits of Fox, a debonair, lazy showoff; the uproarious adventures of the two Cut-Ups, Spud and Joe; George and Martha; and the misadventures of the Stupidfamily. He divided his time between an apartment in the Chelsea district of New York and his home in Mansfield Hollow Connecticut.
From School Library Journal
Grade 1-3 Marshall's Fox is at it again in his sixth bookthis time wrecking his bike while showing off. Reality sets in when Fox' mother refuses to buy him a new one. With the stage set, beginning readers settle in to enjoy Fox' humorous misadventures as he tries to earn money for a new bike. This book is populated with Marshall's typically amusing animal characters. The watercolor illustrations aid readers in understanding Fox' business attemptsselling ``little'' shoes to a kangaroo with enormous feet, being afraid of a dark haunted house where he sells tickets, and delivering mice instead of pizza. What does Fox do best? He makes reading fun and makes money while sleeping! Gale W. Sherman, Pocatello Public Library, Idaho
