Fox versus Winter (My First I Can Read)

Fun-loving, mischievous Fox—the hilarious trickster character featured in Geisel Award–winning Fox the Tiger—goes up against a surprising foe!

Fox does not like winter. None of his friends are around to play. He is bored and alone. Then Fox has an idea. If he cannot escape winter, he will fight it!

Fox versus Winter is a My First I Can Read book, which means it’s perfect for shared reading with a child. Other Fox books include: Fox the Tiger, Fox Is Late, Fox and the Jumping Contest, and Fox and the Bike Ride.
