I Was In My "Happy Place" For Two Days
And I loved every moment of it! A children's tale such as this one will never get old.As an avid fan of the movie, this was my first time reading the book, and I have to say, I love it just a bit more than the film.I found delight as I turned each page, I smiled incredibly wide and laughed out loud at some of the descriptive scenes.I wanted so badly to have Kristofferson (Mrs. Fox's nephew) as a part of this book, but he's a movie-only character.That's the thing with movies adapted from books, you gain some extras and you lose some bits that are rather intriguing.This is very well-written, has a sensational plot, and every scene is vivid and captivating. I felt as though I was ten years old again.And that is a very good place in time to be.I am glad I decided to purchase the book. I was not disappointed; not in the least!

FUNNY!!
The product arrived on time. It is a used book in very good condition. It tells the adventures of a cunning fox, whose wit and charisma enable him to defeat three stingy and mean-hearted farmers. We chose it for my son's English reading plan at school. It's fun and easy to understand. The illustrations help a lot. We learned several new words and expressions. My son and I have thoroughly enjoyed the adventures of this entertaining and ingenious character. He especially enjoys it when I play each character (I love it!) and we both laugh a lot. A memorable read for both of us, like all of Roald Dahl's works. I highly recommend it.

An Entertaining Little Book
Ah, how I love Roald Dahl. I recently reread Boy and The Wonderful Story of Henry Sugar and Six More, so I figured it was time to reread some more of his children's books, all of which I love. Fantastic Mr. Fox is a short, but really clever and entertaining book. It is the story of "Fantastic" Mr. Fox, and his ongoing battle against Boggis, Bunce, and Bean, three farmers who despise him because he always steals poultry from them. In Fantastic Mr. Fox, they are determined to dig him out and then wait him out. Mr. Fox also has a wife and four small children to protect.In many of Roald Dahl's books, it's about the children outwitting the grown-ups. In Fantastic Mr. Fox, we have instead a clever animal outwitting a bunch of stupid and mean adults. Fantastic Mr. Fox isn't my favorite Roald Dahl book (that honor would probably go to Matilda), but it's certainly a book that I love and enjoy.I probably reread this book in about ten or twenty minutes. It's short, and the font is really big. Plus, a lot of space is covered by some pretty good illustrations (by Quentin Blake). So this whimsical book is perfect for reading aloud or for just reading in a few minutes for some fun. It's not laugh-out-loud funny, but it's pretty entertaining.There was a movie made of it in 2009, and I saw some of it on a flight when it came out, but I don't think it did this amazing book justice. Fantastic Mr. Fox is just too short for a movie, so they had to add a whole bunch new things into the movie, and none of it has the sheer genius of Roald Dahl. To be fair, I haven't seen the movie in a while.

Reading Fantastic Mr Fox aloud is fantastic
A social media timeline reminder brought back a joyful memory from 2010 of the golden days of parenting, when my then 10-year-old son's bedtime ritual involved mum and dad taking turns to sit beside his bed and read books aloud with him, putting on silly voices and acting out characters within the stories. Roald Dahl's Fantastic Mr Fox was one such book!What I liked most about Fantastic Mr Fox is not just that it’s a good story, but it’s a good story that’s meant to be read aloud. Every word is in the story is needed, you can’t just skim read the sentences and get the same effect. And every word read aloud “feels” good in the mouth!Roald Dahl was a creative and brilliant writer and given he wrote many of his works for children, perhaps intended for them to be read aloud, by a parent or carer at bedtime, like I did for my son. We read several other of Dahl’s books, but none ever struck me as quite so poetically flowing and pleasing to the ear (and tongue) as Fantastic Mr Fox.I couldn't find my son's copy of Fantastic Mr Fox after the timeline reminder, so for old times sake, I purchased the Kindle version, and enjoyed reading it again. I recommend you do the same. Perhaps find a quiet place to read it aloud. Or, better still, read it to your child at bedtime.I think like me, you’ll find reading Roald Dahl’s Fantastic Mr Fox aloud is fantastic!

Poor quality
The quality was poor and there was mold on the pages. I am waiting for a refund and for Amazon to collect the book, but it is taking ages.
